Condylomata on the tongue of a man suffering from secondary syphilis

Watercolour drawing of the tongue of a man, aged 19 years, showing condylomata on the under aspect of the tip. The patient was suffering from secondary syphilis. The prominence and perfection of form of the growths were probably due to the fact of their position on the under aspect of the tongue, where they were sheltered from rubbing and the passage of food. From the Out-Patient Department.
