ABSTRACT: The liver is an organ that withstands a lot of insults due to various things such as infection, toxins and even our own immune system. There are injuries to the liver that are relatively common in medicine such as viral hepatitis caused by different strains of Hepatitis A-E, autoimmune hepatitis, and injury by drugs such as acetaminophen. However, syphilis causing hepatitis is not seen often and there are certain features that distinguish syphilitic hepatitis that should be reported more to distinguish its characteristic features.
