chronic granulomatous disease (cgd), a rare inherited primary immunodeficiency disorder,  is  caused  by  mutation  in  any  one  of  the  genes  encoding  components   of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (nadph)-oxidase enzyme. ncf2 gene (encoding p67-phox component) is one of them and its mutation is less common to cause cgd (around 5-6%). here, we assessed mutation analysis of ncf...

Two patients with food starch granulomatous reactions, one a necrotising granulomatous peritonitis after the perforation of a gastric ulcer and the other a non-necrotising granulomatous appendicitis, are described. The possibility of food starch induced inflammation must be considered in the differential diagnosis of granulomatous diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

Granulomatous muscle disease is most commonly seen in sarcoidosis, but may be seen in association with a wide variety of other disorders or in isolation. Patients with granulomatous myositis usually present with slowly progressive muscle pain and weakness affecting mainly proximal muscles. There are, however, a few reports of granulomatous muscle disease presenting with flexion contractures of ...

  Background and Objective: Non-specific granulomatous prostatitis is an uncommon diffuse inflammatory condition of the prostate. It is important because it may be mistaken for prostatic carcinoma. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of non-specific granulomatous prostatitis (NSGP) and comparing the results of transrectal ultrasonography, serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) ...
