Mystical Myositis: A Case Series from Kalafong Provincial Tertiary Hospital, Pretoria, South Africa.

Idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) is an expanding field in rheumatology as more myositis-specific antibodies (MSAs) and myositis-associated antibodies (MAAs) become available for testing. Clinical signs and specific clinical phenotypes are found in the MSA group, with as high as 70% of IIM patients having a positive myositis-specific antibody. Although IIM remains a heterogenous disease, assigning a phenotype to these patients will prove to be critical as we learn which cases require more aggressive therapy and what complications to search for as the disease progresses.

Neuro-Behçet - Clinical and radiological findings in a Patient of Sub-saharan African origin.

Behçet's disease is a rare, systemic variable vessel vasculitis mostly seen in patients from the Middle East, Northern Africa and Central Asia. Neuro-Behçet disease (NBD) is often diagnosed in patients with known Behçet's disease who present with neurological symptoms and radiological features of central nervous system involvement. There are very few cases with neuro-Behçet reported from Sub-Saharan Africa in the literature.
