Paralytic dementia
Paralytic dementia, also known as syphilitic meningoencephalitis, is a chronic meningoencephalitis caused by Treponema pallidum invading the brain parenchyma. It is the most serious type of neurosyphilis. The main pathological changes are in the brain parenchyma, and other parts of the nervous system may also be involved. This disease is a brain infectious disease with progressive mental decline and eventually dementia and tremors as the main manifestations. Haslam first reported this disease in 1798. Physical function decline and increasingly severe intellectual impairment and personality decline may gradually occur, eventually leading to dementia and limb paralysis, so it is called paralytic dementia. Paralytic dementia is also known as the fourth stage of syphilis. The disease has been less common over the years, but it is occasionally found, which may be related to inadequate treatment.
