2. [Acute polyradiculoneuropathy after Chlamydia pneumoniae infection]

Author

S, Coste, T, De Greslan, J L, Renard, D, Béquet, and D, Felten

Subjects
Adult, Immunoglobulins, Intravenous, G(M1) Ganglioside, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Antibodies, Bacterial, Autoimmune Diseases, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Immunoglobulin M, Tetracyclines, Immunoglobulin G, Pneumonia, Bacterial, Humans, Female, Chlamydophila Infections, Autoantibodies
Abstract

A 36-year-old woman presented acute polyradiculoneuropathy following Chlamydia pneumoniae infection. Although electrophysiologic studies were normal, clinical features were typical of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Anti-ganglioside GM1 antibodies were positive. Two other cases of GBS following Chlamydia pneumoniae infection have been reported, but no specific feature emerges. Outcome was good in our patient after intravenous globulin then antibiotic therapy. Our case supports the notion that Chlamydia pneumoniae infection can induce GBS. The association is probably underestimated.

3. [Radicular pain revealing Hodgkin's disease]

Author

T, De Greslan, S, Coste, A, Ferreira, J L, Renard, D, Béquet, and D, Felten

Subjects
Diagnosis, Differential, Lumbar Vertebrae, Humans, Female, Middle Aged, Radiculopathy, Hodgkin Disease, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Tomography, Emission-Computed
Abstract

We report on a case of Hodgkin's disease, revealed in a 52 year-old woman by isolated neurological signs. Sciatica is an uncommon pattern of discovery that is particularly misleading. It may lead to a delayed diagnosis all the more prejudicial since it discloses an advanced stage of the disease. The neurological involvement is always associated with a bone lesion. This latter can be discovered at an early stage through magnetic resonance imaging.
