  • Primary Chest Wall Abscess Caused by Tuberculous Costal Chondritis
    Global Surgery Case Report ISSN: 2056-7863 Primary chest wall abscess caused by tuberculous costal chondritis: A case report Omar Toumi1*, Houssem Ammar1, Sadok Ben Jabra1, Mariem Ayed1, Hanen Znaiti1, Faouzi Noomene1, Khadija Zouari1, Randa Salem2, Rahul Gupta3, Jamel Saad2 and Mondher Golli2 1Department of surgery, Fattoumabourguiba hospital, Monastir, Tunisia 2Department of Radiology, Fattoumabourguiba hospital, Monastir ,Tunisia 3Department of HPB surgery and Liver transplantation, CARE hospital, Hyderabad, India Abstract Introduction: Mycobacterium tuberculosis can affect almost any part of the body. Although tuberculosis of the bones is well known, tuberculosis involving the cartilages is rarely described. Presentation of case: We report a 30 year male, who presented with insidious onset pain and swelling of the right lower parasternal area which on evaluation was diagnosed as tubercular infection of costochondral junction. The patient had no evidence of tuberculosis anywhere else in the body. Discussion: Bone and joint tuberculosis is a rare location of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. It predominates at the spine and large joints (hip, knee). The costal involvement is extremely rare location, and primary tubercular costo chondritis is an exceptional form and has been very rarely reported in the literature. Conclusion: This case illustrates that primary rib cartilage tuberculosis is a rare disorder worldwide, and needs high index of suspicion for diagnosis, based on clinical, radiological and microscopical backgrounds. Introduction On examination, the temperature was 37.8° C. The local examination showed swelling over the anterior aspect of left lower parasternal chest Tuberculosis continues to be a major international problem wall. The swelling was tender and fluctuant. There was no redness, especially in less developed countries.

  • Immunopathologic Studies in Relapsing Polychondritis
    Immunopathologic Studies in Relapsing Polychondritis Jerome H. Herman, Marie V. Dennis J Clin Invest. 1973;52(3):549-558. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI107215. Research Article Serial studies have been performed on three patients with relapsing polychondritis in an attempt to define a potential immunopathologic role for degradation constituents of cartilage in the causation and/or perpetuation of the inflammation observed. Crude proteoglycan preparations derived by disruptive and differential centrifugation techniques from human costal cartilage, intact chondrocytes grown as monolayers, their homogenates and products of synthesis provided antigenic material for investigation. Circulating antibody to such antigens could not be detected by immunodiffusion, hemagglutination, immunofluorescence or complement mediated chondrocyte cytotoxicity as assessed by 51Cr release. Similarly, radiolabeled incorporation studies attempting to detect de novo synthesis of such antibody by circulating peripheral blood lymphocytes as assessed by radioimmunodiffusion, immune absorption to neuraminidase treated and untreated chondrocytes and immune coprecipitation were negative. Delayed hypersensitivity to cartilage constituents was studied by peripheral lymphocyte transformation employing [3H]thymidine incorporation and the release of macrophage aggregation factor. Positive results were obtained which correlated with periods of overt disease activity. Similar results were observed in patients with classical rheumatoid arthritis manifesting destructive articular changes. This study suggests that cartilage antigenic components may facilitate perpetuation of cartilage inflammation by cellular immune mechanisms.

  • Multiple Hereditary Exostoses
    Multiple Hereditary Exostoses Dror Paley MD, FRCSC Medical Director, Paley Orthopedic and spine Institute, St. Mary’s Medical Center, West palm Beach, FL David Feldman, MD Director, Spinal deformity center, Paley Orthopedic and spine Institute, St. Mary’s Medical Center, West palm Beach, FL Multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE), also known as multiple osteochondromas (MO), is an autosomal dominant skeletal disorder. Approximately 10–20% of individuals are a result of a spontaneous mutation while the rest are familial. The prevalence of MHE/MO is 1/50 000. There are two known genes found to cause MHE/MO, EXT1 located on chromosome 8q23-q24 and EXT2 located on chromosome 11p11-p12. In 10–15% of the patients, no mutation can be located by current methods of genetic testing.1–7 These mutations are scattered across both genes. EXT1/EXT2 is essential for the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate (HS). HS production in patients’ cells is reduced by 50% or more.8–19 MHE/MO is associated with characteristic progressive skeletal deformities of the extremities and shortening of one or both the sides, leading to limb length discrepancy (LLD) and short stature.20–28 Two bone segments, such as the lower leg or forearm, are at greater risk of problems due to either osteochondromas (OCs) from one or both bones impinging on or deforming the other bone or a primary issue of altered growth causing one bone to grow at a faster or slower rate. OCs can also affect joint motion due to impingement of an OC with the opposite side of the joint or subluxation/dislocation related to deformity, impingement, and incongruity.20,24,26,29,30 OCs can also cause nerve or vessel entrapment and/or compression, including the spinal cord and nerve roots.
