Mycobacterium haemophilumbone and joint infection in HIV/AIDS: case report and literature review

Tipo de estudo: relato de caso. Relato de caso: Homem, 42 anos, diagnosticado com aids há dois anos, desenvolveu aumento de volume abdominal há seis meses da admissão. Tomografia computadorizada mostrou líquido livre na cavidade peritoneal, além de linfonodos mesentéricos e esplenomegalia. O líquido ascítico tinha aspecto leitoso e alto nível de triglicerídeos. Após amplo diagnóstico diferencial, diagnosticamos linfoma de Hodgkin tipo celularidade mista por biópsia linfonodal via videolaparoscópica, Ann Arbor IIIS. Quimioterapia e continuação da terapia antirretroviral de alta potência resultaram em ganho de peso e redução do volume abdominal. Ascite quilosa é uma entidade rara, que possui vários diagnósticos diferenciais. Discussão: Em nossa revisão, a maioria (15/18, 83%) dos casos de ascite quilosa em paciente com HIV/aids deveu-se a causa infecciosa (especialmente pelo Mycobacterium avium complex e tuberculose), em pacientes gravemente imunocomprometidos (linfócitos T-CD4 médio=84células/mm3). Até onde sabemos, este é o primeiro caso de ascite quilosa secundária a linfoma de Hodgkin em paciente com aids.

BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) due to Salmonella sp. is rare. It is sometimes difficult to treat and need prolonged antibiotic treatment. CASE REPORT: We reported a case of PJI of the hip in a 67-year-old female who received prior left total hip arthroplasty. Two-stage revision surgery with antibiotic-loaded cement spacer had been performed to the patient and successfully control the infection. CONCLUSION: Although literature review showed that there has been no consensus for the treatment of Salmonella PJI, a two-stage revision procedure has been more commonly performed to control the infection by previous authors and might be the safest way to control Salmonella PJI recently.
