Article Synopsis
- Inflammatory low back pain (IBP) is commonly associated with spondylarthritis (SpA) but can also be a symptom of various malignancies, both hematologic and solid tumors.
- A study analyzed 34 patients diagnosed with malignancy-related IBP over the past decade, comparing their clinical features to a control group of patients with axial SpA.
- Findings revealed that malignancy-related IBP patients had higher levels of inflammatory markers and a similar ratio of hematologic to solid tumors, suggesting that malignancies should be considered in differential diagnoses of IBP.

We aimed to evaluate 3 ARCL1C patients, 2 of whom are still alive and in their childhood period, from 2 unrelated families with novel mutations, to demonstrate the clinical variability of pulmonary involvement.
