Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis with unusual features

Abstract: We describe two children with chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis who showed unusual extraskeletal manifestations. The first patient developed an asymptomatic pulmonary consolidation; the second had an atypic localization of the associated pustulosis, which involved the trunk, groin, thighs and buttocks, but spared the palms and soles. We conclude that this disease is clinically more heterogeneous than previously thought.

Successful Treatment of Severe Arthralgia Associated with Palmoplantar Pustulosis with Low‐Dose Oral Cyclosporine A

Abstract: Two patients with severe arthralgia associated with palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) were treated with oral cyclosporine A (CsA). Clinical efficacy was assessed on a 0-4 point scale for erythema, desquamation, infiltration, and pustulation, and on a 0-3 point pain scale. Skin lesions and arthralgia improved within twelve weeks with low dose CsA ranging from 2.1 to 2.2 mg/kg/day. High levels of plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) were reduced to the normal range.

[Sapho syndrome: 2 case reports].

Abstract: We report on two patients with painful hyperostosis of the mandible and the thoracic skeleton Other symptoms were arthralgia, arthritis, osteitis, and palmoplantar pustulosis Radiographic analysis revealed regions of circumscribed hyperostosis which showed in increased uptake in scintiscan Metastasis, chronic osteomyelitis, Ewing's sarcoma, or Paget's disease were excluded and the diagnosis Sapho syndrome was made This recently introduced acronym describes a disease with Synovitis, Acne, Pustulosis, Hyperostosis and Osteitis Because of the possible axial skeleton involvement, an association to the spondylathropathy group is still being discussed The etiopathogenesis of this rheumatologic disease is not known
