“…Alternatively AA might be an extra intestinal manifestation of IBD, either contiguous through fistulas or metastatic. Granuloma formation favors metastatic Crohn's disease . In our case, the granuloma formation could not be explained by this as our patient had ulcerative colitis.…”

“…The aseptic abscesses syndrome as described by Andre et al [11,12] is a group of clinical and pathological symptoms which include: young age, fever, abdominal pain, leucocytosis, elevated ESR. The imaging test results reveal hypodensic, abscesses-like usually of multi-focal distribution, localised mostly in the spleen, liver, abdominal lymph nodes and sometimes outside the abdominal cavity, e.g.…”

“…The aseptic abscesses syndrome (AA) belongs to a group of autoinflammatory diseases. It is characterised by the presence of deep abscesses, which are the consequence of accumulation of neutrophils, detected on radiological tests, negative results of blood and abscess aspirate cultures, and no response to antimicrobial agents and rapid post-glucocorticosteroid (GCS) improvement [11,12,13,14]. In the majority of described cases, aseptic abscesses occur in the spleen (70%), lymph nodes of the abdominal cavity (53%), liver (40%), lungs (17%), pancreas (10%), brain (10%), and sometimes also in the soft tissues.…”

A relationship between the AA syndrome and the inflammatory bowel diseases, and neutrophilic dermatoses has been described [11,12].…”

Introduction. Cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis and aseptic abscesses syndrome are among the rarest extraintestinal manifestations of bowel inflammatory diseases. Materials and methods. The study describes the case of a 19-year-old female admitted to the Department of Dermatology due to cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis. In order to reach the final diagnosis, a wide spectrum of laboratory and diagnostic tests were performed. Three subsequent abdominal CT scans confirmed the presence of hypodense foci, initially in the spleen, and subsequently in the liver. The aseptic abscesses syndrome was diagnosed based on the radiological picture and the exclusion of infectious causes of the above-described foci. Objective. Presentation of a case of concomitance of cutaneous small vessel vasculitis and septic absecess, accompanied by inflammatory bowel disease. Results. During the hospitalisation, the patient developed symptoms of paralytic ileus. The results of colonoscopy and biopsy of intestinal mucous membrane were typical of ulcerative colitis. Conclusions. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first presentation of ulcerative colitis accompanied by aseptic abscesses syndrome concomitant with cutaneous small vessel vasculitis.

A 36-year-old man was admitted for a tender inflammatory type IV thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm with multiple aortic dilations. After open repair, he remained frail, but results of all infectious and inflammatory investigations were negative. Hypermetabolic intrasplenic collections were discovered on postoperative computed tomography, and aortitis with aseptic abscess syndrome was strongly suggested. Immunosuppressive therapy was undertaken, and his health improved dramatically. After 7 years of treatment, however, the initial aortic dilations had developed in size, necessitating multiple surgical procedures leading to complete aortic replacement. The postoperative course was uneventful with a satisfactory final computed tomography scan. Subsequent to immunotherapy, no new aneurysm developed.
