1. Our experience with a six-year-old boy who had diarrhea, urethritis, conjunctivitis and arthritis is presented as a classical case of Reiter's syndrome. The patient recovered fully in a period of five months and has remained well during the past five years. 2. The cause of Reiter's syndrome remains unknown but in children may be related to Flexner bacillus dysentery. 3. The disease in children is usually less severe than in adults and all 11 children reported have recovered. The recent literature is reviewed. 4. Treatment with antibiotics is of no value and steroid therapy has not prevented exacerbations nor shortened the course of the disease. 5. The nongonococcal triad of urethritis, conjunctivitis, and arthritis is a distinct clinicopathologic entity which differs from known infections and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.

Visceral Leishmaniasis is a very common but neglected disorder in Bangladesh. It can remain subclinical or become symptomatic with an acute, sub acute or chronic course. Atypical presentations can be equally challenging to the clinician. Visceral leishmaniasis is associated with various autoimmune phenomena. Sometimes it can mimic any autoimmune disorders including Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA), SLE, and Rheumatoid Arthritis etc. Here, we describe a case of visceral leishmaniasis with Coombs’ positive autoimmune hemolytic anemia.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v14i2.19686 J Medicine 2013, 14(2): 198-200

A 51 year old woman while treated on methotrexate (MTX) and leflunomide (LEF) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA), developed exertional breathlessness and undue tiredness followed by fever and cough, at her 11 years of suffering. Her respiratory symptoms developed around 12 weeks after leflunomide intake. She improved with steroid treatment. The Leflunomide (LEF) induced interstitial pneumonitis is an uncommon condition in absence of prior lung disease but potentially fatal. We report a case of Leflunomide (LEF) induced interstitial pneumonitis.Bangladesh Med J. 2017 Jan; 46 (1): 38-40
