*For Medical Professionals only, registration required Bacillary angiomatosis, a disorder characterized by presence of numerous bacilli along with vascular proliferation in affected tissues, such as the skin, bone, lymph nodes and brain. The organisms causing bacillary angiomatosis and the related disorder bacillary peliosis are similar to those causing cat-scratch disease. Patients with the human immunodeficiency virus HIV infection may develop bacillary angiomatosis, manifested as a cutaneous disorder with multiple angiomatous papules, skin lesions typical of Kaposis sarcoma , cellulitis and subcutaneous nodules. Bone lesions are sometimes the initial manifestation of the disease. Radiographically, the dominant feature is osteolysis, associated with an adjacent soft tissue mass. Also, see angiomatosis

*For Medical Professionals only, registration required Bacillary angiomatosis, a fairly recently described illness caused by Bartonella (Rochalimaea) henselae , a bacterium difficult to culture and only shown recently by DNA testing not to be a rickettsia. The organism particularly affects HIV-infected patients producing characteristic erythematous, well-circumscribed skin lesions which are tender and may bleed. Disseminated disease affecting multiple organ systems including the liver, spleen, central nervous system and lymph nodes has been seen in AIDS patients. Within the lung well or poorly defined lung nodules measuring up to 1.5 cm have been described, as has peribronchovascular interstitial thickening . Other findings including endobronchial polyps have been reported in at least two HIV-infected patients. Hilar lymphadenopathy and pleural effusion were also seen in association with these individuals but a direct relationship to B. henselae

P. Braekeveld, K. Verstraete, K. Deprest, E. Van Hecke, M. Kunnen
Key-word: Angiomatosis, bacillary. Background: A 47-year-old HIV-positive man with a medical history of venous insufficiency of the lower legs presented with pain in the right foot and both lower limbs. Work-up
On clinical examination there were purplebrown nodules on the skin of both feet, legs and arms. These nodules were histologically proven to be Kaposi-sarcoma. Conventional radiographs and MR-images of the lower legs and feet were obtained at that time. The patient received medication for both skin and bone lesions. MR-imaging was performed during and after therapy.
Radiological diagnosis
Plain radiography ( fig. 1 ), AP view, of the right lower leg shows multiple oval, sharply demarcated lytic lesions in the cortex of the tibia and fibula. Radiograph of the left calcaneus and midfoot, lateral view ( fig. 2 A ) demonstrates extensive osteolysis in the calcaneus and the midfoot.

Bacillary angiomatosis and Kaposi's sarcoma can co-exist in HIV-positive patients
WESTPORT, May 15 (Reuters Health) - While infrequently diagnosed in the general population, bacillary angiomatosis (BA) is not uncommon in patients with advanced HIV-1 infection and very low CD4+ counts, according to researchers in Brazil. A case history presented by Ely E. M. Cortes and colleagues from Hospital da Lagoa, Rio de Janeiro, in the April issue of AIDS Patients Care and STDs shows that Kaposi's sarcoma and BA can both be present in HIV-infected patients. The patient presented in 1990, and again in September 1995, with Kaposi's sarcoma. Four months later, physicians noted a "red nodule" on the left conjunctiva. This lesion, along with papular cutaneous lesions, was mixed with lesions from Kaposi's sarcoma. " Radiotherapy was tried, but the conjunctival lesion was not responsive," they write. The patient's CD4+ count at that time was 92 cells per microliter and his CD8+ count was 1,392 cells per microliter. While still being investigated, the patient presented in May 1996 with a dull ache in the upper right abdomen.
