Limited observations suggest modest improvement with antimicrobial treatment, while immunomodulation may lead to more significant recovery in some patients.
-
4
A dual diagnostic approach is recommended to ensure antimicrobial coverage for neurosyphilis while facilitating prompt autoimmune phenotyping.
