متن کامل[Coexistence of ankylosing spondylitis and systemic lupus erythematosus (case report)].
Coexistence of ankylosing spondylitis with connective tissue diseases is uncommon. We describe here the coexistence of ankylosing spondylitis and systemic lupus erythematosus in a 35-year-old man. He presented with a 4-year history of pain in the hip joint and lower spine, and he later developed a malar rash and discoid rash. Immunological tests revealed that antinuclear antibody and double str...

Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism (HP) is an induced or inherited condition characterized by insufficient secretion of parathyroid hormone. The clinical manifestations of this condition are varied, and pain and stiffness affecting the back and hips resembling ankylosing spondylitis is an under-recognized symptom in these patients. Here, we report a case of delayed diagnosis of hypoparathyroidism re...
