FGS is mostly misdiagnosed as a sexually transmitted infection. There is no reported case of vulvar schistosomiasis from Schistosoma mansoni in an immunocompetent or immunocompromised person in Ghanaian medical literature; however, there is a reported case of S. haematobium in an immunocompromised person. This is the first case of vulvar schistosomiasis from S. mansoni infection in an immunocompromised person. This case report discusses the need to consider vulvar schistosomiasis in patients with itchiness of the vulva. Case Presentation. A sixty-nine-year-old married woman presents with a persistent vulvar itch that is unresponsive to treatment. A clinical diagnosis of vulvar lichen planus unresponsive to medical therapy was made. A histopathological diagnosis of vulvar schistosomiasis was, however, made. Ziehl-Neelsen stain revealed the ova of Schistosoma mansoni. Symptoms resolved on administration of oral praziquantel.Conclusion: Vulvar schistosomiasis must be considered in clinical history-taking and investigation of signs and symptoms related to itchiness of the vulva. Ziehl-Neelsen staining is a helpful histopathology armamentarium to determine the species of schistosome ova.","PeriodicalId":9608,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Infectious Diseases","volume":"2023 ","pages":"9913905"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10599860/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"54227787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a veterinary pathogen, S. schleiferi causes canine ear and skin infections. Chronic osteomyelitis is a progressive process characterized by bone destruction and the formation of sequestrum.

Descriptions detailing the pathogenicity and virulence of S. schleiferi osteomyelitis were limited to a few case reports. Among the three reported cases of S. schleiferi osteomyelitis, immunosuppression, malignancy, and recent surgical procedures were comorbidities. Compared to those who are immunosuppressed, immunocompetent individuals are generally not susceptible to uncommon microorganisms. Early detection of osteomyelitis, aggressive appropriate prolonged antimicrobial treatment and a multidisciplinary approach contribute to optimal recovery.

Phrenic nerve palsy is a rare complication of herpes zoster infection of the C3, C4, and C5 nerve roots. We present a case of bloodstream carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii infection in a Ghanaian patient with HIV type 1 infection and multiple risk factors, including unilateral diaphragmatic eventration with compression atelectasis likely secondary to phrenic nerve palsy due to herpes zoster infection, consequently leading to recurrent hospital and ICU admission. In this case, we emphasize the need for clinicians in LMICs to be aware of CRAB, in order to advocate for the availability of evidence-based medicines in resource-limited settings for appropriate treatment. In addition, we illustrate the importance of a high index of suspicion for infection with carbapenem-resistant organisms such as A. baumannii and highlight a rare and severe complication of herpes zoster infection in the form of phrenic nerve palsy and consequent diaphragmatic eventration.","PeriodicalId":9608,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Infectious Diseases","volume":"2023 ","pages":"9930291"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10586909/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49688855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An adult, 29-year-old male, without relevant medical history, who developed neuromuscular symptoms nine days after administration of the first dose of anti-COVID-19 ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine.Results: Symptoms appeared nine days after vaccination, with lower limbs paresthesia. Three days later, paresthesia of upper limbs occurred. The following day, distal weakness of limbs, with standing and gripping difficulties, occurred. The clinical evaluation demonstrated dysarthria, incomplete palpebral closure, bilateral facial, and tongue paresis. The electromyography was compatible with a motor demyelinating polyneuropathy, confirming the diagnosis of the Guillain-Barré syndrome. Management with five sessions of plasma exchange was prescribed, with favorable clinical results.Conclusions: Clinical and laboratory tests confirmed the Guillain-Barré syndrome and the time elapsed from the date of the vaccine administration to the appearance of initial symptoms, added to the absence of other causes, and allowed to establish that the disease was caused by the vaccination.","PeriodicalId":9608,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Infectious Diseases","volume":"2023 ","pages":"3290956"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10586427/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49688856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
