Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome was first described as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis. Because of its rarity, a thorough description of its clinical manifestations is lacking. Herein, we describe the clinical manifestations and imaging features, especially the enthesopathy in bilateral Achilles tendons, of a middle-aged Asian woman with SAPHO syndrome, who improved after diclofenac treatment.

SAPHO syndrome is a rare inflammatory osteoarticular disorder, which includes autoimmune diseases such as pustulotic arthro-osteitis, inflammatory bowel disease-associated spondyloarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis. There are few reports on the treatment of SAPHO syndrome that presents with bone destruction in the spine. We present a case in which adalimumab (ADA) was administered to treat destruction of the lumbar vertebral endplates caused by SAPHO syndrome.

Synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome is a rare disease characterized by a sterile inflammatory osteitis and/or arthritis associated with a wide range of dermatological manifestations, such as acne, palmoplantar pustulosis, and psoriasis. This review, providing up-to-date knowledge on this disease, aims at informing researchers and clinicians to help them program future studies in order to improve patients' care. Due to the vast clinical heterogeneity that characterizes this disease, SAPHO syndrome has received various names; among these, chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis represents the most used one.

Objectives: To confirm the presence of different disease phenotypes of pediatric SAPHO syndrome (pSAPHO) based on their skin manifestations in a large cohort of Italian patients.
Methods: pSAPHO were enrolled in the Eurofever Registry and the data retrospectively analysed. Patients were divided depending on their skin manifestations into an Acne-Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) group and a Palmoplantar Pustulosis-Psoriasis Vulgaris (PPP-PV) group and were compared with patients without skin manifestations (chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis, CNO).
