Abstract VEXAS syndrome is a recently described X-linked autoinflammatory condition associated with somatic mutation of the UBA1 gene. It often coexists with MDS which can occur due to DNMT3A mutation. These patients, predominantly males, present after the fifth decade of life with unique systemic inflammatory clinical features and have hematological abnormalities and vacuolated precursor cells on bone marrow pathology. Here we describe a unique case of VEXAS syndrome in a patient harboring DNMT3A gene mutation with coexisting UBA1 mutation with a review of literature.

On presentation ofStaphylococcus aureusendocarditis, unusual manifestations may represent the main clinical features of the disease. Isolated bacterial meningitis as the first manifestation of endocarditis is considered to be an unusual neurological complication. Here, we describe a caseS. aureusendocarditis presenting as isolated meningitis and mimicking meningococcal septicaemia. Because of the high mortality rate of the disease, the prompt recognition of this infectious syndrome is of crucial importance for the correct management of patients.

Abstract Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is defined as injury to the liver caused by exposure to a drug or some drugs. The number of cases suffering from DILI has been increasing. There are few clinical features specifically associated with DILI. The recognition and diagnosis of DILI is difficult. In this report, we described a DILI case caused by herbal remedies.

This case report of a six-year-old child with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome illustrates the potential diversity of presenting gastrointestinal symptoms and signs including hematemesis, obstruction and recurrent intussusception. Endoscopy was useful in assessment, while endoscopic polypectomy and surgical resection were both necessary for management. The literature is reviewed and the possible role that this syndrome may have in the development of both gastrointestinal and nongastrointestinal tumours is highlighted.

Acute eosinophilic myocarditis is a relatively rare disorder with serious morbidity and mortality. Due to its infrequency, standardized management guidelines are wanting. We present a case of acute, necrotizing eosinophilic myocarditis requiring several levels of critical care. We reviewed similar cases reported in the literature to highlight common clinical features, describe natural disease course and associated complications, and review varying approaches to medical therapy.
