Figure Legend:
This is the same child depicted in image 128_10 of the collection. The mother of this 6-month-old infant was not screened for syphilis during pregnancy or at delivery due to a series of medical errors. The x-ray displays the characteristic "celery stalking" and widening of the metaphases in long bones found in untreated congenital syphilis. Courtesy of Neal Halsey, MD
