description | The prognosis of syphilitic aortitis and its various complications has changed, as has been the case with many other nosological entities, in recent years, particularly during the last two decades. Indeed, if the prognosis of syphilitic aortitis has improved, this is due to two reasons that also coincide with the greater benignity of many other clinical conditions: earlier diagnosis and earlier initiation of treatment. In fact, the two terms are confused, since there can be no early treatment if it is not previously facilitated and guided by early diagnosis. In this case, that of syphilitic aortitis, the question of timely diagnosis and treatment is even more important because it is a condition characterized by complications that are almost always unusually serious; preventing them requires a structured diagnosis before the organofunctional collapse of the cardiovascular system, caused by the complications. |

Indeed, if the prognosis of syphilitic aortitis has improved, this is due to two reasons that also coincide with the greater benignity of many other clinical conditions: earlier diagnosis and earlier initiation of treatment. In fact, the two terms are confused, since there can be no early treatment if it is not previously facilitated and guided by early diagnosis. In this case, that of syphilitic aortitis, the question of timely diagnosis and treatment is even more important because it is a condition characterized by complications that are almost always unusually serious; preventing them requires a structured diagnosis before the organofunctional collapse of the cardiovascular system, caused by the complications. El pronóstico de la aortitis sifilítica y de sus diversas complicaciones se ha modificado, como ha sucedido con muchas otras entidades nosológicas, en estos últimos años, particularmente durante estas dos últimas décadas. En efecto, si el pronóstico de la aortitis luética ha mejorado, ello debe imputarse a dos motivos que coinciden también en la mayor benignidad de muchos otros cuadros clínicos : a un diagnóstico más precoz y a la iniciación, también precoz, del tratamiento. En realidad ambos términos se confunden ya que no puede hablarse de tratamiento precoz si éste, previamente, no es facilitado y orientado por el diagnóstico temprano. En este caso, el de la aortitis sifilítica, la cuestión del diagnóstico y tratamiento oportunamente concretados es más importante aún porque se trata de una afección que se caracteriza por presentar complicaciones casi siempre de inusitada gravedad; prevenirlas presupone un diagnóstico estructurado antes del derrumbe órgano funcional del sistema cardiovascular, provocado por las complicaciones.
