BACKGROUND
Rouget du porc, or swine erysipelas, usually occurs in man as Rosenbach's erysipeloid. Septicemic forms are more uncommon and can be associated with dermal involvement far from the site of inoculation. We report a case in a patient given corticosteroid therapy for systematic
Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a widespread Gram-positive, nonsporulating rod bacterium predominantly associated with skin disease in swine and cetaceans. Cutaneous lesions have yet to be described in dogs.To describe the clinical presentation, molecular Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), characterized by recurring episodes of fever, serositis, arthritis, skin changes and complicated by amyloidosis in 30%-60% of cases frequently begins in childhood. Systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (systemic JRA, Still's disease) is the most important
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, is a systemic auto-inflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent attacks of fever with peritonitis, pleuritis, synovitis and erysipeloid rash. The marenostrin-encoding fever (MEFV) gene, located on chromosome 16p13.3,
Familial Mediterranean Fever is one of the most frequent recessive disease in non-Ashkenazi Jews. The gene responsible for the disease (MEFV) has very recently been identified. The M694V ('MED') mutation was found in about 80% of the FMF Jewish (Iraqi and North African) chromosomes. To see if the
Gemcitabine is a nucleoside analogue that has shown to have antineoplastic activity in different solid tumours (lung, pancreas, bladder, colon, ovarian, and breast cancer) and malignant mesothelioma. The toxic effects of gemcitabine include myelosuppression, flu-like syndrome, altered liver function
Erysipeloid is an occupational infection of the skin caused by traumatic penetration of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. The disease is characterized clinically by an erythematous oedema, with well-defined and raised borders, usually localized to the back of one hand and/or fingers. Vesicular, bullous
A whale (Globicephalus melas), stranded on the north coast of Finistere, was the origin of a minor epidemic of Baker-Rosenbach erysipeloid. The clinical picture was that usually seen after contamination by marine animals (spiny fish, crabs, molluscs). To our knowledge, this is the first time that a
BACKGROUND
Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a Gram-positive facultative anaerobe found worldwide and is most commonly associated with skin disease in swine, while anecdotal reports of cases in dogs have been associated with endocarditis.
OBJECTIVE
Clinicians should consider systemic infectious
BACKGROUND
Pemetrexed (Alimta(®)) is a new-generation antifolate used to treat malignant pleural mesothelioma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We report two cases of a new toxicity induced by pemetrexed: scleroderma-like induration of the lower extremities.
METHODS
The first case concerned a
We purified the protein antigen (P64), which contains 66 and 64 kDa proteins, from the alkaline extract (AE) of whole cells of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae strain Agata (serovar 5) to determine the protective activity of the antigen against E. rhusiopathiae infection in pigs. The serum titre of
Erysipelothrix Rhusiopathiae is a Gram-positive bacillus that is ubiquitous in nature. The bacterium is a zoonotic pathogen known to infect wild and domestic animals. Human infections, however, are uncommon and typically present with localised or generalised cutaneous lesions. Systemic
The author discusses the indications and contraindication of compression. The study of auto-immune complexes in the circulating blood has shown a significant increase in lymphedema patients with erysipeloid inflammations and a definite increase, but less marked, in lymphedema patients without a past
