Sarcoidosis is a chronic multisystem disorder of unknown etiology characterized by formation of granulomata within affected organs and consequent distortion of their normal architecture. Typically, these are non-caseating epithelioid granulomata involving organized collections of activated macrophages and T lymphocytes. In countries where tuberculosis is endemic, sarcoidosis is often misdiagnosed and mistreated as tuberculosis. We present case report of a 47-year-old female who presented with 2 years history of recurrent, multiple nodules with occasional joint pain & fever and had received anti-tubercular therapy without any improvement. A diagnosis of sarcoidosis is made finally and she was managed accordingly.Bangladesh J Medicine Jan 2017; 28(1) : 50-52

ABSTRACT Lyme disease, an infectious multisystemic disease is caused by "Borrelia burgdorferi". It is a spirochete transmitted by the Ixodes tick. Until today, only one case has been reported from Nepal. Here we report case of a 50-year female from Gulmi, who presented with a history of fever, multiple joint pain, tiredness, tingling sensation, and a painful brownish raised lesion over the neck and anterior chest. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by histological findings typical of erythema chronicum migrans and by serology. The patient was treated successfully with doxycycline. This is the second case report of Lyme disease from Nepal and the first documented case who presented with typical erythema chronicum migrans. We suspect that Lyme disease might not have been considered in the differential diagnosis of fever with rash and joint pain in Nepal and suggest that it is to be kept as a differential in the given scenario.

I was a little surprised to read that only two instances of recurrent joint pain in adult women receiving rubella vaccine have been reported.1 I submit the following case report. A rubella seronegative female pediatrician (D.T.) in the child-bearing age range received Meruvax rubella vaccine and was converted to rubella seropositive. Over the next year there were five episodes of arthritis, mainly involving the joints of the hands, with sufficient swelling and pain to make fastening a safety pin extremely difficult, and sonic milder pain in the feet.

A 37-year-old man suffered irreversible profound symptomatic bradycardia requiring a pacemaker 3 days after beginning tizanidine/loxoprofen combination therapy for neck pain. This combination therapy is prescribed frequently for joint pain; however, combining loxoprofen with tizanidine could increase the risk of symptomatic bradycardia that is both permanent and severe. Similar cases have not been reported. This case suggests that tizanidine should be used cautiously when combined with loxoprofen, and drug interaction screening should be performed.

Transient bone marrow edema (TBME) is a self-limiting disease characterized by joint pain with localized bone marrow edema by MRI and has been reported in many case series and case reports. It is well known that joints of the lower extremity including hips, knees, ankles, and feet are the classical sites for TBME. Many theories have been proposed for the pathogenesis of TBME. Systemic osteopenia and vitamin D deficiency is one of the theories that have been suggested in the last few years. In this case report, we present a middle-aged male patient, who presented with 4 attacks of TBME in both knees between September 2016 and August 2017. The patient was found to have persistently low vitamin D and osteopenic T score in DXA scan of the lumbar spine and hips. Patients of TBME usually present with joint pain that is provoked by weight-bearing physical activity. The aim of this case report is to raise the awareness that TBME can be the initial presentation of systemic loss of bone mineral density.
