Imaging Findings in Musculoskeletal Complications of AIDS

Radiographics (2004)

Carlos S. Restrepo Diego F. Lemos H Gordillo Richard Odero Thomas K. Varghese

Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) are susceptible to a variety of complications that can affect the musculoskeletal system. These complications can be infectious, inflammatory, or neoplastic or can take some other form. Infection (cellulitis, necrotizing fasciitis, soft-tissue abscess, pyomyositis, osteomyelitis, septic arthritis) is the most common complication. Inflammatory processes include various arthritides as well as polymyositis. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Kaposi sarcoma are the two most common neoplasms in this patient population. Miscellaneous disorders include osteonecrosis, osteoporosis, rhabdomyolysis, anemia-related abnormal bone marrow, and hypertrophic osteoarthropathy. The underlying mechanisms leading to these diseases are complex and not fully understood but are thought to be multifactorial. Radiology may play an important role in early diagnosis and treatment planning in this population, in whom clinical and laboratory findings are commonly equivocal and nonspecific. Although biopsy is often necessary for the final diagnosis, it is important for the radiologist to be familiar with the different types of musculoskeletal disease in HIV-positive and AIDS patients so that an appropriate differential diagnosis can be established. © RSNA, 2004

Piriformis Pyomyositis With Sciatica

JCR Journal of Clinical Rheumatology (2007)

Inés Colmegna Maria Justiniano Luis R. Espinoza Carlos R. Giménez

In Brief We report the case of a patient who presented with right sciatic pain as a manifestation of piriformis muscle syndrome 1 month after a clandestine- induced abortion. MRI revealed the presence of a piriformis abscess. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from blood cultures and from the purulent material obtained by CT-guided aspiration. Piriformis pyomyositis should be recognized as a potential complication of "unsafe" abortions that if left untreated could progress to sepsis and death. This potentially life-threatening pyomyositis developed 1 month after a clandestine abortion.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) or von Recklinghausen disease is an inherited autosomal dominant disorder and the most common of the phakomatoses (neurocutaneous syndromes), affecting 1 in 3,000 individuals.[1][1] Pathogenesis involves mutations in the NF1 gene that encodes the protein neurofibromin
