Rare Association of Severe Cryptococcal and Tuberculosis in Central Nervous System in a case of Sarcoidosis
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem noncaseating granulomatous disease with a propensity for lung, eye, and skin which recently have been proposed that mycobacterium tuberculosis may contribute in its pathogenesis, and rarely involves central nervous system (CNS). Despite CD4+ lymphocytopenia, sarcoidosis by itself does not increase risk of opportunistic infections other than cryptococcosis.Nonethel...
متن کاملIdentification of Mycobacteria species in cutaneous lesions of Sarcoidosis by PCR-Restriction Ragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method
Background: Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous multisystem disease of unknown etiology. It has recently been tired to detect Mycobacteria genome in biopsy specimens of patients with sarcoidosis by Polymorphism chain reaction method. Objective: To detect and identify Mycobacteria species in cutaneous lesions of the patients with sarcoidosis by PCR-RFLP. Patients and methods: 20 patients with clinica...
متن کاملImmune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis in an HIV-infected patient: an immunohistochemical study.
Sarcoidosis has been rarely described in literature as a cause of interstitial pulmonary disease associated with AIDS. This study reports a case of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis in a patient with a history of previous pulmonary tuberculosis concomitant with HIV infection. Results of the immunohistochemical study of samples from the resected ri...
متن کاملConcomitant axillary mycobacteriosis and neuro-sarcoidosis: diagnostic pitfalls.
There are many similarities between mycobacteriosis, in particular, tuberculosis, and sarcoidosis such as predominant intrathoracic localisation (even if all organs and tissues may be concerned), great variability of phenotypic expression, and granulomatous inflammatory reaction, caseous necrosis not being an absolute criterion of tuberculosis. Moreover, microbial (or mycobacterial?) agents may...
متن کاملPericardial sarcoidosis presenting as PUO diagnosed on FDG PET CT scan
Pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO) is a common problem in day-to-day practice. FDG PET CT is an established investigation that aids in identifying the cause of PUO. Due to its high sensitivity PET detects an occult hypermetabolic focus in the body where CT helps in anatomical localization, vascularity, enhancement characteristics of the lesion detected on PET. It helps to differentiate benign vers...
