- Acute petrified myocardium associated with meningococcal sepsis in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematous: a fatal case(2019) SANTOS, Ana Carolina Etrusco Zaroni; LUGLIO, Michele; DELGADO, Artur Figueiredo; SCHUWARTZ, Constance Dell Santo Vieira; MARQUES, Heloisa Helena Sousa; VALOES, Clarissa Carvalho de Miranda; DOMINGUEZ, Maria Andreina Cabrera; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow de; SILVA, Clovis Artur; DUARTE-NETO, Amaro NunesAcute petrified myocardium associated with septic shock, diagnosed by autopsy has rarely been described. A 15-year-old adolescent male was diagnosed with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus. One year later, he was hospitalized with fever, myalgia, headache, arthritis, vomiting, dyspnea and was diagnosed with sepsis secondary to bronchopneumonia and meningitis. Blood culture identified Neisseria meningitidis serogroup Y. Despite antibiotics and intensive therapeutic measures, he died after 29 days of hospitalization. The autopsy revealed necrotic cardiomyocytes with dystrophic calcification and interstitial fibrosis.
- CANDLE syndrome: chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature-a rare case with a novel mutation(2016) CAVALCANTE, Miria Paula V.; BRUNELLI, Juliana B.; MIRANDA, Clarissa C.; NOVAK, Glaucia V.; MALLE, Louise; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; JESUS, Adriana A.; SILVA, Clovis ArturWe described herein a patient with chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (CANDLE) syndrome and a novel mutation in PSMB8 gene. This patient had multiple visceral inflammatory involvements, including rare manifestations, such as Sweet syndrome and pericarditis. A 3-year-old male, Caucasian, was born to consanguineous healthy parents. At the age of 11 months, he presented daily fever (temperature > 40 A degrees C), irritability, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly; and tender and itching, erythematous papular and edematous plaque lesions. Echocardiogram showed mild pericarditis. Skin biopsy revealed a neutrophil infiltrate without vasculitis suggesting Sweet syndrome. Mutational screening of PSMB8 gene revealed homozygous c.280G > C, p.A94P mutation. He responded partially to high doses of oral glucorticoid and intravenous methylprednisolone. Colchicine, azathioprine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, and intravenous immunoglobulin were not efficacious. At the age of 3 years and 1 month, tocilizumab was administered resulting in remission of daily fever and irritability. However, there was no improvement of the skin tenderness and itching lesions. Conclusion: A new mutation in a CANDLE syndrome patient was reported with pericarditis and mimicking Sweet syndrome. The disease manifestations were refractory to immunosuppressive agents and partially responsive to tocilizumab therapy.
