The World Health Organization and Centre for Disease Control both recommend routine screening of pregnant females for syphilis. Despite guidelines in place, maternal syphilis often remains undiagnosed and untreated and there is currently a surge in cases of congenital syphilis. We present a case of a 3-month-old male illustrating a delayed diagnosis of congenital syphilis despite characteristic skin lesions, hepatosplenomegaly, haemolytic anaemia, failure to thrive and history of untreated syphilis in the mother. This case highlights the need to strengthen existing guidelines for intensive screening and early treatment for maternal syphilis. It also underscores the importance of increased awareness amongst paediatricians and dermatologists regarding overlapping clinical features of congenital syphilis.</p>","PeriodicalId":49415,"journal":{"name":"Tropical Doctor","volume":" ","pages":"494755251325318"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143544075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This phenomenon encompasses physical, verbal, emotional, and structural abuse, often exacerbated by deeply entrenched societal norms, gender discrimination, and systemic inefficiencies in healthcare delivery. Female patients in India frequently encounter GBV in its various forms, namely neglect, inappropriate physical contact, discriminatory attitudes, and breaches of confidentiality. Women from marginalized communities (lower socio-economic or minority groups) are particularly vulnerable. Contributing factors include insufficient privacy protocols, overburdened healthcare facilities, inadequate staff training on gender sensitivity, and power dynamics, all of which particularly disadvantage female patients. The consequences of GBV are profound, leading to psychological trauma, diminished trust in healthcare systems, or delayed or avoided medical care. Despite its prevalence, GBV in Indian hospital settings remains under-reported owing to fear of stigma, societal pressure, and lack of accessible reporting mechanisms.</p>","PeriodicalId":49415,"journal":{"name":"Tropical Doctor","volume":" ","pages":"494755251318089"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143366345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
