ABSTRACT

We report an unusual case of septic sacroiliitis resulting as a complication of a previous gluteal intramuscular injection. A previously healthy young man presented with fever and severe pain in the right hip, with swelling and reduced range of movement. Imaging showed inflammatory changes suggestive of septic sacroiliitis. After treatment, the symptoms completely resolved and a follow-up computed tomography confirmed the complete resolution of the sacroiliitis. We identified that the patient took a gluteal intramuscular injection one week before his symptoms. This case highlights the possible association between septic sacroiliitis and the intramuscular injection and the importance of aseptic technique

ABSTRACT

This descriptive study was designed to describe the patterns and determinants of maternity care among Syrian women living in Damascus. All 39 birth registers in 2 large provinces were used to recruit 500 mothers of healthy newborns. Mothers were interviewed in their homes using a semistructured questionnaire. Multivariate analysis of the determinants of the frequency of use of antenatal care showed the following variables were significant: urban residence and visit to antenatal care in the 1[st] trimester. The significant variables for an early visit to antenatal care were the woman's level of education; being pregnant with the 1st baby; and number of visits to antenatal care. Being young [age < 20 years] also correlated with early timing of the 1st antenatal visit
