Abstract:
Pyogenic arthritis, acne, pyoderma gangrenosum, and suppurative hidradenitis (PAPASH); pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), and acne; PG, acne, hidradenitis suppurativa; and PG, acne, spondylarthritis (PASS) are all part of a spectrum of autoinflammatory disorders that share similar pathogenesis. They are related to various mutations in the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 1, leading to dysregulation of the innate immune system and overproduction of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-17, and IL-23 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Targeting these cytokines with biologics plays an important role in treatment. Here, we are describing the case of a young male with PAPASH syndrome who was treated with TNF-α and IL-1 inhibitor.

Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
