- W3035157026 abstract "Neutropenic enterocolitis (NE) also known as typhlitis is a serious condition that has been described in immunosuppressed hosts including patients with leukemia, HIV and in patients on chemotherapy. We present the first case of female on sulfasalazine for psoriatic arthritis, otherwise healthy, who was diagnosed with NE involving the cecum and rectum. This adds up to the cases of NE diagnosed in nononcologic conditions. A 65-year-old female with a history of psoriatic arthritis on sulfasalazine, presented to the emergency department (ED) after an episode of syncope. She was complaining of a fever and mild generalized abdominal pain. Physical exam was remarkable for peri-umbilical tenderness. Severe neutropenia and acute kidney injury were found on blood work. CT scan of the abdomen showed evidence of colitis, involving the cecum, ascending colon and rectum, which in light of neutropenia was consistent with NE. Clostridium difficile colitis was ruled out. Intravenous fluids and broad-spectrum antibiotics were initiated, and sulfasalazine was discontinued. The patient was subsequently afebrile and was out of neutropenia by day 3 without the need for granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). By day 5, the patient was pain free and was discharged. Even though NE is primarily described in the setting of malignancies and chemotherapy, one should keep in mind that this entity can occur in people on any immunosuppressive therapy. Early discontinuation of sulfasalazine and conservative management were essential in the treatment of NE in this case. Whether neutropenia precipitates colitis or the latter causes agranulocytosis by bone marrow suppression through cytokines remains to be proved. The diagnosis of medication-related adverse reactions remains a big challenge for clinicians and therefore requires a high index of suspicion. Resolution of the symptoms can simply occur with the discontinuation of the offending drug and often does not require extensive workup or treatments that might cause harm to the patient's health." @default.
