- Six months later, the patient experienced severe abdominal symptoms including profuse diarrhea and significant weight loss, leading to his death, with the diagnosis confirmed post-mortem.
Article Abstract
A clinico-morphological description is presented of a severe systemic disease in 36-year-old male, the trigger factor of which was Yersinia enterocolitica. The patient developed a peculiar nosological variant of systemic necrotic vasculitis of infectious-allergic genesis with signs of nodular periarteritis in the intestine and kidneys in association with diffuse involvement of the connective tissue which resulted 6 months later in a dominating abdominal syndrome with profuse diarrhea, progressive cachexia with a fatal outcome. The diagnosis was established after death.

Joint hypermobility is a common feature in children and adolescents, often physiological and benign, but it is also a manifestation of hereditary connective tissue disorders. In pediatrics, there is a real need to differentiate Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) hypermobile type (hEDS) from benign hypermobility, in the absence of a genetic marker specific to this form of EDS. In 2023, the International Ehlers-Danlos Consortium revised the diagnostic criteria for children and adolescents, introducing the concept of hypermobility spectrum disorder.

The tendon-bone interface, known as the tenosynovial union or attachment, can be easily damaged by excessive exercise or trauma. Tendon-bone healing is a significant research topic in orthopedics, encompassing various aspects of sports injuries and postoperative recovery. Surgery is the most common treatment; however, it has limited efficacy in promoting tendon-bone healing and carries a risk of postoperative recurrence, necessitating the search for more effective treatments.
