Neurosyphilis is associated with a mixed picture, mainly mononuclear (lymphocytes, activated lymphocytes, plasma cells), but consisting of rare granulocytes as well. Mixed pictures with lymphocytic predominance are also found in a number of rarer diseases— neurobrucellosis, leptospirosis, Legionnaires disease, CNS infection with Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Whipple disease. ), the early CSF picture may be either mainly granulocytic or mixed, with activated lymphocytes and plasma cells. In the chronic stage, lymphocytes predominate.
The cell picture contains hypersegmented granulocytes, most of which are already altered, as well as two plasma cells and a plasma cell progenitor (arrow) with a hyperchromatic nucleus and marked cytoplasmic basophilia.
