Late mucous membrane syphilis: this kind of syphilis late symptom mainly occurs in oral cavity, nasal cavity and tongue. Oral lesions often occur in the hard palate, showing nodular gumma, and perforation often occurs near the central part of the hard palate, which is the symptom of late syphilis. The nasal septum also often forms gum swelling, and can damage the periosteum and bone, resulting in perforation of the nasal septum, forming a saddle nose. After the gum swelling and ulceration of the tongue, a penetrating ulcer was formed with soft and irregular edges. The symptoms of late syphilis were mild. Periostitis is the most common, especially long bone. The second is gumma, which occurs symmetrically in the flat bone, especially in the skull, and can form dead bone and skin ulcer.
