Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an alphavirus transmitted by mosquitoes, mostly Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. After half a century of focal outbreaks of acute febrile polyarthralgia in Africa and Asia, the disease unexpectedly spread in the past decade with large outbreaks in Africa and around the Indian Ocean and rare autochthonous transmission in temperate areas. This emergence brought new...
∗ Corresponding author. E-mail address: [email protected] (S. Giestas). more commonly from the head of the pancreas. Clinical symptoms are usually non-specific. In contrast to ductal adenocarcinoma, ACC rarely obstructs the common bile duct because it generally compresses and does not infiltrate into adjacent structures, so jaundice is infrequent (12%). It has a unique ability to produce ...
Background Chikungunya fever is a pandemic disease caused by an arthropod-borne chikungunya virus (CHIKV). The virus spreads through mosquitoes. This mosquito induced viral illness is clinically suspected on symptoms from fever and severe polyarthralgia. The recent outbreak of chikungunya was reported in November 2016 in the metropolitan city Karachi, Pakistan. We emphasis on the awareness of t...
A 71-year-old man presented with a high fever, polyarthralgia, petechiae and palpable purpura accompanied by livedoid change on his legs and feet. Histopathological findings of the purpura revealed perivascular infiltration of neutrophils, mononuclear cells, and nuclear debris, and extravasation of red cells mainly in the upper dermis: all signs consistent with leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Smal...
Adult Onset Still's Disease (AOSD), an adult variant of systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis, is a rare systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown aetiology. The rarity of this disease is associated with low index of suspicion and delayed diagnosis in patients suffering from it and in the presence of atypical features the diagnosis can be further challenging. This is a case report on a 2...
Whipple's disease (WD) is a chronic debilitating disease caused by the bacillus Tropheryma whippleii. WD classically presents with the main clinical symptoms of polyarthralgias, chronic diarrhea, weight loss, and abdominal pain. Given its systemic involvement, it is common for WD to present with a multitude of other clinical scenarios--sometimes with predominant neurologic, cardiac, and dermato...
Here, we report the case of a 55-year-old man with reactivation of old cutaneous scars associated with a febrile illness, episcleritis, polyarthralgias, erythema nodosum and hilar adenopathy. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) revealed right paratracheal, bilateral hilar, and subcarinal lymphadenopathy without any nodular densities in both lung fields. A scar biopsy revealed multiple no...
Rat bite fever, caused by Streptobacillus moniliformis, is a systemic illness classically characterized by fever, rigors, and polyarthralgias. If left untreated, it carries a mortality rate of 10%. Unfortunately, its nonspecific initial presentation combined with difficulties in culturing its causative organism produces a significant risk of delay or failure in diagnosis. The increasing popular...
OBJECTIVE There are limited studies in Latin America regarding the chronic consequences of the Chikungunya virus (CHIK), such as post-CHIK chronic inflammatory rheumatism (pCHIK-CIR). We assessed the largest cohort so far of pCHIK-CIR in Latin America, at the municipality of La Virginia, Risaralda, a new endemic area of CHIK in Colombia. METHODS We conducted a cohort retrospective study in Co...
Erythema nodosum was first distinguished from other forms of erythema by Willan (1808), and Hebra (1860) amplified Willan's account of the condition as follows: " . . . tumours of a pale red colour, raised above the level of the skin, and either semi-globular or oval in form. These swellings are tender on pressure, and are observed chiefly on the lower limbs. In some cases, the outbreak of this...
