Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) – advancing the diagnosis

Marion Roderick, Rahul K. Shah, Valerie E. Rogers et al. · 30 Aug 2016

BACKGROUND: Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a little known inflammatory bone disease occurring primarily in children and adolescents. Delays in referral and diagnosis may lead to prolonged courses of antibiotics with in-patient care, unnecessary radiation exposure from multiple plain radiographs or bone scans and repeated surgery including bone biopsies. Children (aged < 18 years)…

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis: from aetiopathogenesis to therapeutic approaches

Lina Zaripova, Angela Midgley, Stephen E. Christmas et al. · 23 Aug 2021

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common paediatric rheumatological disorder and is classified by subtype according to International League of Associations for Rheumatology criteria. Depending on the number of joints affected, presence of extra-articular manifestations, systemic symptoms, serology and genetic factors, JIA is divided into oligoarticular, polyarticular, systemic, psoriatic, enthesitis-related and undifferentiated arthritis. This…

In order to optimize JIA management, the paediatric rheumatologist has begun to regularly use measurements of disease activity developed, validated and endorsed by international paediatric rheumatology professional societies in an effort to monitor…

Autoinflammatory bone disorders with special focus on chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO)

Christian M. Hedrich, Sigrun R. Hofmann, Jessica Pablik et al. · 1 Dec 2013

Sterile bone inflammation is the hallmark of autoinflammatory bone disorders, including chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) with its most severe form chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO). Autoinflammatory osteopathies are the result of a dysregulated innate immune system, resulting in immune cell infiltration of the bone and subsequent osteoclast differentiation and activation. Interestingly, autoinflammatory bone disorders are…

Blau Syndrome, the prototypic auto-inflammatory granulomatous disease

Carine Wouters, Anne Maes, Kevin P. Foley et al. · 6 Aug 2014

Blau syndrome is a monogenic disease resulting from mutations in the pattern recognition receptor NOD2, and is phenotypically characterized by the triad of granulomatous polyarthritis, dermatitis and uveitis. This paper reviews briefly the classical clinical features of the disease, as well as more recently described extra-triad symptoms. From an ongoing prospective multicenter study, we provide…
