Thoracic vertebral body erosion due to a perianeurysmal outpouching lesion after thoracic endovascular aortic repair: a case report and literature review.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord

Background: The safety of endovascular treatment, such as thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), for a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm has been well-established, with a reported low postoperative mortality rate but higher incidences of long-term complications such as endo-leakage, device failure, and aneurysm-related death. Based on this, we report the first case of massive thoracic vertebral body erosion due to a perianeurysmal outpouching lesion after TEVAR.

Case Presentation: A 77-year-old female with a history of TEVAR due to descending thoracic aortic arch aneurysm 4 years ago was referred from the cardiovascular clinic to the spine center.

Altered 3D genome reorganization mediates precocious myeloid differentiation of aged hematopoietic stem cells in inflammation.

Inflammation is a driving force of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) aging, causing irreversible exhaustion of functional HSCs. However, the underlying mechanism of HSCs erosion by inflammatory insult remains poorly understood. Here, we find that transient LPS exposure primes aged HSCs to undergo accelerated differentiation at the expense of self-renewal, leading to depletion of HSCs.

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is one of the most common spinal surgeries performed in the US but is associated with various morbidities. Esophageal perforation is one of the rarest complications of ACDF, but it is potentially fatal, therefore requiring timely detection and treatment. We present three cases of esophageal perforation after ACDF.

Background: High titers of specific antibodies to cyclic citrulline peptide (ACCP) are often present in the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and, together with rheumatoid factor (RF), are a diagnostic marker of RA. Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection in which osteoarticular involvement occurs in 10-85% of patients. RF in brucellosis patients is significantly higher than in healthy people.

Clinical presentation and treatment response in ACPA-negative rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by joint inflammation and potential extra-articular manifestations. This review compares the presentation and treatment response between anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA)-positive and ACPA-negative RA patients. The incidence of seronegative RA (rheumatoid factor [RF]-negative and ACPA-negative) has increased in recent decades, emphasizing the need for new diagnostic biomarkers.
