 A 51-year-old man presented with enanthem involving the hypopharynx and bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy. He showed an acute disease course with suspected inflammatory changes, and antibiotics were prescribed. However, he showed no improvement, and biopsy evaluation of a specimen obtained from the hypopharynx under general anesthesia suggested the possibility of a malignant tumor. We observed no obvious findings of malignancy, and preoperative examination showed a positive serum syphilis reaction, leading to a diagnosis of syphilis. Syphilis typically presents with enanthem involving the lips and oral cavity;however, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients in whom enanthem is observed in the hypopharynx.
