A 42-year-old male complaining of tonsillar hypertrophy, which was diagnosed as the second stage of syphilis, is reported. In this patient, milk-white granulation, so called condyloma latum, was observed in the pharyngeal and tonsillar mucosa and anus. These are typical symptoms of second stage of syphilis. Serological testing is important for the diagnosis and treatment of syphilis. Recently the early stage of syphilis case has been increasing. Otorhinolaryngotists should have a knowledge of this disease.
