Article Synopsis
- Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare, inflammatory bone disease that causes multiple lytic lesions without infection, with no established treatment protocols.
- A 12-year-old boy with a long history of non-infectious osteomyelitis showed stability on naproxen and methotrexate, but developed new symptoms in his elbow after 1.5 years.
- The patient's treatment was modified to include intravenous zoledronic acid, leading to significant clinical and radiological improvement, marking the first documented use of this treatment for CRMO in Iraq and Arab nations.
Objectives: The main purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of COVID-19 vaccine side effects in patients with rheumatic diseases and to examine any potential associations with medications, disease type, or comorbidities.
Methods: A multicentre cross-sectional study from rheumatology units in different hospitals in Iraq was carried out between 8 of August 2021 and 4th of August 2022. Patients were eligible for inclusion if they have a rheumatic disease and have taken one or more doses of any COVID-19 vaccine.
