[Infection by the hematogenic route of closed vertebral fracture: apropos of a case and review of the literature].

We report a new case of haematogenous infection at the site of a spinal fracture. The patient developed a severe bronchopneumonial infection. After the trauma three weeks later he developed a severe but incomplete cord lesion due to acute vertebral osteomyelitis. The patient was treated with antibiotics. He made a slow, but uneventful and complete neurological recovery. 28 instances of osteomyelitis after fracture of which seven involved vertebral bones have been previously reported. The spontaneous appearance of haematogenous osteomyelitis in a fractured bone is a rare but not exceptional event.

Hemidiaphragmatic paralysis, an unusual presentation of Parsonage-Turner syndrome.

A previously healthy 38-year-old man presented a typical Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS) three weeks after a cold and unusual muscular exercise. In addition to the motor and sensory defects of the upper limbs, a right hemidiaphragmatic paralysis occurred, which proved to be reversible after several months. A brief review of the hemidiaphragmatic injury in PTS is presented.

Pattern of Lyme arthritis in Europe: report of 14 cases.

Fourteen cases of Lyme arthritis are reported. The most frequent picture was that of oligoarthritis appearing in that part of the leg where the cutaneous or neurological complications, or both, of Lyme disease had developed before the arthritis. In most cases recovery followed a single 10 day course of intravenous (IV) penicillin therapy. Arthritis was the presenting feature of Lyme disease in three cases.

Pustulotic arthroosteitis and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis in children. Report of three cases.

We describe 3 children with pustulosis palmaris et plantaris associated with chronic recurrent (multifocal) osteomyelitis, located in the clavicle in 2 patients, and in the distal fibula as well as in several metatarsals in the third. The first 2 children also developed inflammatory sacroiliitis, one with chronic peripheral polyarthritis. These 3 cases represent the arthrosteitis and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis syndrome associated with palmoplantar pustulosis.

Klinefelter's syndrome and lupus erythematosus: report of a case.

Haemophilus aphrophilus: a rare pathogen in vertebral osteomyelitis.

A case of vertebral osteomyelitis due to Haemophilus aphrophilus is presented. We review the clinical and bacteriological findings and emphasise the need for careful bacteriological investigation. To the best of our knowledge this is the second reported case of vertebral osteomyelitis caused by this rarely recognised pathogen.
