The etiology of the synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome remains unclear. Infectious factors are proposed to be relevant in the etiopathogenesis of the disease. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a proposed relationship between Staphylococcus aureus cultured from plantar pustule and SAPHO syndrome, which was successfully treated with co-trimoxazole (CTM) (sulfamethoxazole/trimetoprim). CTM might be the drug of choice for therapy for SAPHO syndrome because of combined antibiotic and immunomodulatory properties. Hypersensitivity testing of the medication in vitro was performed to identify, in the preclinical stage, the hypersensitivity reaction to CTM, which may have been severe.

Autoinflammatory bone diseases (AIBDs) constitute a recently identified subset of autoinflammatory diseases. These conditions are characterized by an exaggerated inflammatory response in the bones without any apparent etiology. Inflammatory bone lesions associated with AIBDs exhibit chronic inflammation, are typically culture-negative, and do not exhibit discernible microorganisms on histopathological examination.

The complex interaction between the immune system and autoinflammatory disorders highlights the centrality of autoimmune mechanisms in the pathogenesis of autoinflammatory diseases. With the exploration of PSTPIP2, it has been discovered to play an inhibitory role in immune diseases, suggesting its potential utility in the research and treatment of rheumatic diseases. This review outlines the mechanisms of PSTPIP2 in chronic multifocal osteomyelitis (CMO), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome, liver diseases, renal diseases, pressure ulcer sepsis and diabetic obesity.

Aim: SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis and osteitis) syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by typical cutaneous lesions (palmoplantar pustulosis and eruptive acne) and osteoarticular symptoms (aseptic osteomyelitis and joint inflammation). This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor abrocitinib in patients with SAPHO syndrome.
Methods: We presented a patient with SAPHO syndrome with accelerated disease progression who did not respond to traditional therapies.
