| Abstrakt: |
A 59-year-old man with hypertension developed general fatigue, fever, and precordialgia in early March 2007. An antibacterial agent was intravenously administered; however, no improvement in his symptoms or laboratory findings was observed. He had acne and pustulosis, and radiographs and CT of the chest revealed sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis. As a result, the diagnosis was revised to SAPHO syndrome, and he improved with steroid administration. SAPHO syndrome is a condition that is rarely found at the initial examination in the Department of Internal Medicine. We report a case with a discussion of the literature. |
