This image depicts the perineal region of a female patient, who had presented with what was described as perianal condylomata lata lesions, due to what was diagnosed as a case of secondary syphilis, caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. The secondary stage of syphilis is characterized by the manifestation of a skin rash, and mucous membrane lesions. This stage typically starts with the development of a rash on one or more areas of the body. The rash usually does not cause itching.
