Abstract: Acne vulgaris is a disorder that affects the pilosebaceous follicles on the skin. Isotretinoin is used in the treatment of severe acne and it may have side effects such as arthritis, myalgia, hyperostosis, sacroiliitis in the musculoskeletal system. Rarely seen sacroiliitis is usually recovered by discontinuation of isotretinoin. In this article, it was presented that a year-old patient with bilateral and widespread sacroiliitis as a result of isotretionin use.
Serum vitamin B 12 and folic acid levels, thyroid function tests, and parathyroid hormone levels were within normal range. Hepatitis panel, including hepatitis B surface antigens, hepatitis B surface antibodies, hepatitis C virus antibodies, and human immunodeficiency virus antibodies, was negative.
Serological evaluations including anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide and anti-nuclear antibody tests were negative. In addition, rheumatoid factor test was also negative. Spinal magnetic resonance imaging MRI was considered to be normal. However, sacroiliac MRI showed bilateral bone marrow edema and subchondral sclerosis Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Nerve conduction studies and electromyography revealed sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy Table 1 and Table 2. Figure 1. Magnetic resonance imaging findings during drug use. Contrast T1-weighted fat-suppressed sequences at the oblique coronal plane reveal increased uptake of contrast material at both sacroiliac joints asterisks , and increased uptake of contrast material at sacrum arrows due to bilaterally subarticular bone marrow edema.
Isotretinoin is a retinoid used in the treatment of severe and persistent acne either alone or in combination with steroid. It often causes mucocutaneous, musculoskeletal, neurological, and ocular adverse effects. Most common musculoskeletal adverse effects include arthralgia and myalgia. Adverse events may be explained by immunomodulatory mechanisms and effects of retinoids on neural tissue development and differentiation, tumoral tissue growing, loss of synaptic transmission, and function.
These include headache, insomnia, hearing loss, epileptic seizure, and pseudotumor cerebri. This involvement is more prominent in sensorial nerves and myelin fibers at distal of extremities. Presence of clinical or electrophysiological peripheral neuropathy after systemic use of retinoid was reported within 10 days in earliest case, and after four years in latest case. This recovery may occur within two weeks to 2. However, authors detected a significantly decreased sensory conduction velocity and action potential amplitude in median, ulnar, and sural nerves.
These differences can be related to duration or dose of isotretinoin use. Currently, the exact mechanism of isotretinoin leading to peripheral neuropathy is unclear. In a study, it has been demonstrated that retinoid affects nerve tissue development in vivo and in vitro. Electrophysiological evaluation at sixth month revealed demyelinating polyneuropathy, being more prominent in sensorial fibers. Electrophysiological findings were normalized two months after withdrawal from treatment. These results are in agreement with other studies which detected neuropathy.
In SAPHO syndrome, constitutional symptoms, abnormal laboratory findings and musculoskeletal symptoms are observed as well as necrotizing acne.
In addition, development of sacroiliitis after systemic isotretinoin treatment was also reported in patients with SAPHO syndrome. Unilateral sacroiliitis developed in patients who used isotretinoin for three months while bilateral sacroiliitis developed in patients who used isotretinoin for two years.
HLA-B27 positivity was detected in this case. Sacroiliitis developed bilaterally in our case. Sacroiliitis in our case was linked to isotretinoin use, as the patient had no musculoskeletal complaint prior to isotretinoin use. Furthermore, hip pain, back pain and active sacroiliitis findings on MRI emerged three months after prescription of isotretinoin.

Rarely seen sacroiliitis is usually recovered by discontinuation of isotretinoin. In this article, it was presented that a year-old patient with bilateral and widespread sacroiliitis as a result of isotretionin use. Despite the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, sacroiliitis, which did not regress, responded dramatically to methyl prednisolone treatment.

In patients using isotretinoin, sensorial fibers are involved earlier than motor fibers in peripheral nervous system. This involvement is more prominent in sensorial nerves and myelin fibers at distal. In this article, we report a year-old male case who developed demyelinating polyneuropathy and sacroiliitis after six-months of isotretinoin use.
Isotretinoin is a vitamin A derivative used in acne treatment when standard treatment with systemic antibiotics fails. It exerts its effects via retinoic acid receptors. Recently, a case of sacroiliitis and polyneuropathy was reported.
A year-old man presented with back pain, bilateral hip pain, and paresthesia in hands. Hip pain started approximately three months ago, and was accompanied by longstanding morning stiffness. Patient reported that he experienced pain particularly at night and when he woke up in the morning, and his pain did not radiate to legs.
He had also paresthesia in both arms for two months, involving his fingers, in particular. Physical examination revealed limited and painful lumbar movements in all directions. There was full range of motion in hip joint, however, hip movements were painful. Chest expansion, sacroiliac provocation tests mennel, gaenslen , and neurological examination findings were normal. Thus, the underlying origin of the back pain was considered to be inflammatory, and laboratory tests were performed.
Laboratory analysis demonstrated normal biochemical values and complete blood count. Urinalysis was normal. Serum vitamin B 12 and folic acid levels, thyroid function tests, and parathyroid hormone levels were within normal range. Hepatitis panel, including hepatitis B surface antigens, hepatitis B surface antibodies, hepatitis C virus antibodies, and human immunodeficiency virus antibodies, was negative.

Isotretinoin is a vitamin A derivative used in acne treatment when standard treatment with systemic antibiotics fails. It exerts its effects via retinoic acid. Methods: This study included two groups as 40 patients who were using at least 1-year oral isotretinoin for nodulocystic acne and 40 healthy. The addition of isotretinoin to biotherapies was required to control De Wet J, Jordaan HF, Kannenberg SM, Tod B, Glanzmann B, Visser WI. A year-old female presents with symptoms of tremors, lack of focus, sleeplessness, emotional liability, bulging eyes, loose stools, heat.

Arthritis generally appears two or 10 weeks after treatment. In our case, HLA-B27 was negative. In conclusion, sacroiliitis should be kept in mind among musculoskeletal adverse effects, and peripheral neuropathy as a nervous system adverse effect associated with isotretinoin use.
