Abstract
We report an occurrence of treatment failure after oral spiramycin therapy in a man with secondary syphilis and a reported penicillin and tetracycline allergy. Molecular detection revealed treponemal DNA in the blood of the patient and sequencing of the 23S rDNA identified an A to G transition at the gene position corresponding to position 2059 in the Escherichia coli 23S rRNA gene. The occurrence of this novel 23S rDNA mutation was examined among 7 rabbit-propagated syphilitic strains of Treponema pallidum and among 22 syphilis patient isolates from the Czech Republic. The prevalence of A2058G and A2059G mutations among clinical specimens was 18.2 and 18.2 %, respectively.
Abstract (in Czech)
Popsáno selhání léčby muže se sekundární syfilis po orálním podání spiramicinu. V krvi pacienta byla detekována treponemální DNA a sekvencování 23S rDNA odhalilo tranzici A na G v pozici, jež odpovídá pozici 2059 v genu pro 23S rRNA u druhu Escherichia coli.
