患者,男,55岁。左肩至胸前疼痛,持续2天。体检发现体温37.8°C;肿胀,发烧,胸骨左侧有压痛(图1);左肩抬高、颈部右旋和翻转以及深呼吸时疼痛加剧。血液检查结果显示炎症,C反应蛋白13.1mg/dL;红细胞沉降率48mm/h。类风湿因子和抗环瓜氨酸肽(anti-CCP)抗体呈阴性。由于超声波检查未发现胸骨关节积液,所以未进行关节抽吸。胸骨关节CT扫描显示糜烂性病变。磁共振成像短时间反转恢复(MR-STIR)序列显示左侧胸骨关节异常信号(图2)。给药口服非甾体类抗炎药,1个月后症状消失。随访未发现皮肤病变,诊断为SAPHO综合征引发的胸骨关节炎。

胸骨关节炎肩部抬高时累及胸骨,有时被误诊为肩部疾病。当胸骨关节炎症扩散至胸锁乳突肌时,颈部翻转或者向未感染一侧旋转时会引起疼痛。化脓性关节炎、骨关节炎、类风湿性关节炎、SAPHO综合征、强直性脊柱炎、银屑病、痛风或者假性痛风等都可能引起胸骨关节炎。其中,类风湿性关节炎、强直性脊柱炎、银屑病和SAPHO综合征中可能出现糜烂性病变。该患者抗环瓜氨酸肽(anti-CCP)抗体检查呈阴性,说明不可能是类风湿性关节炎。强直性脊柱炎一般发生于年轻人,且具有潜伏期。未观察到指甲病变和指炎,说明不可能是银屑病。
