This is the first case that reports an ocular syphilitic infection masquerading as MEWDS at presentation and that turns to be an ASPPC. Syphilis serology should be routinely done in every case of atypical MEWDS especially when unusually presented in a young healthy man, with bilateral involvement and a bad clinical evolution.
