RESUMEN

An HLA-B27 genetic profile patient is fully investigated by molecular analyses after an anamnestic assessment of multi-site ecosystems, following the holistic vision of human being.VDRL and Widal-Wright (WWR) resulted positive, showing at Wright’s reaction a title of 1:40. Of all the enzymatic activities measured, only the ALP enzymatic pool activities showed a low increasing value of 297 U/L. Of all later acute phase proteins, Only C3 c protein value (127 mg/dL) and fibrinogen (376 mg/dL) were altered. Cultural and molecular oropharyngeal ecosystem investigation resulted significantly positive to Mycoplasmas(Mhand Uu) and Chlamydia trachomatis(Ct) together with a spread of saprophytic flora. From an accurate anamnesis, several and severe uro-genital clinical symptomatology emerged from birth until the beginning of rheumatologic symptomatologies that were confirmed by oldest Mh, Uu and Ctsilent chronic infections between these ecosystems. The molecular HPV research was negative, while the Thin prep pap-test was indicative of vaginosis and cellular reactive changes associated with inflammation. Parasitological research resulted positive for presence of 5-7 newly-formed G. lambliacysts for microscopic field, while digestibility test was positive for presence of several free fatty acid crystals. The remarkable presence of indigested meat fibre and several mucous dense filaments were observed. The pH value was 6.5, while blood faecal test was positive. The values observed were: ferritin 12 microg/L (10-120), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) 310 &mgr;g/dL (300+-20), unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC) 286 microg/dL (200-220) and iron seric level 24 microg/dL (60-130). Faecal research highlighted a very scarce presence of E. coli, resulting in 102 UFC/g of stool. Of all enteroinvasive pathogens, researched by molecular analyses, only Yersinia spp. was positive. After several specific cycles of antibiotic and antinflammatory therapies, the patient improved its general health condition considerably and showed almost complete regression of aching inguinal lymph node inflammation. In a picture of a worsening inflammatory process, produced by pathogens like Mycoplasmas, chronic silent or low grade inflammation atypical agents, in young HLA-B27 positive patient, VDRL test resulted positive. This value represents the first non-specific unique spy to reveal the precocious immunological signal in order to register the beginning of early innate immune system decay, keeping in mind that mycoplasmal and chlamydial infections are the triggering of cancer in patients genetically susceptible.

RESUMEN

In this report, we evaluated the case history of a patient with longstanding chronic pharyngitis who had periodic clinical manifestation for three years after a flu vaccine administration, and after various treatments tried to resolve the chronic pharyngitis with unsuccessful antibiotic and anti-inflammatory therapies. The patient occasionally presented a slight ocular inflammation, while dysuria occurred after sexual activity. The search for common pathogens by use of pharyngeal swabs resulted only in Corynebacterium ulcerans growth. After this first result, we focused our investigations on ocular and uro-genital infections of Chlamydiaceae (Ct and Cp) and Mycoplasmataceae (Mh and Uu) families. We examined the patient?s pharynx using molecular and culture techniques from three different sites. Although several infectious agents, including viruses and bacteria, causing chronic pharyngitis are reported in the literature, these ocular and uro-genital pathogens are seldomly routinely investigated in the same patient in ORL. Furthermore, while episodes of chronic pharyngitis is one of the most common clinical manifestation in ENT patients, these atypical pharyngitis represent ever-increasing infections which must always be considered and researched by suitable instruments such as PCR. Only from the collection of detailed medical history and careful observations of clinical manifestation, indicative of an oral chronic pathologic phenomenon of low intensity initiated several years previously, starting with sudden outbreak and relapse like a bout of flu, we suggest to study these atypical infecting agents frequently localized in the urogenital human area, awhich would allow to highlight and to recognize these clinical cases that manifest themselves as chronic inflammation of jugulodigastric lymph nodes, remaining still unrecognized and rarely associated to chlamydial infection, confused with the response to flu vaccination. After several specific cycles of antibiotic therapy, the patient's health improved considerably and showed almost complete regression of jugulodigastric lymph node inflammation.
