Introduction: nodular lymphangitis (NL) may be a manifestation of various infectious and non-infectious conditions, characterised by subcutaneous inflammatory nodules that extend from the site of the primary focus to the regional lymph nodes. NL usually constitutes a challenge in primary health care, and histopathological and microbiological evaluations are necessary to establish the definitive diagnosis. Methods: We report a classic case of NL that developed in the upper limb of a middle-aged man after trauma on the right thumb. The objective:  was to emphasise some aspects of the differential diagnosis in a patient with NL and to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis in the scenery of initial medical attention. Results: the clinical manifestations were non-specific, but the microbiological study revealed typical characteristics of sporotrichosis. The treatment with itraconazole (200 mg daily) for six months was successful. Conclusion: NL constitutes a challenging condition and the early diagnosis depends on a high index of suspicion. Case reports may reduce late diagnoses with unfavourable results.

(1) The aim of the present study was to describe the endoscopic and histopathological findings in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum in patients with Crohn’s disease. (2) Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that included patients receiving treatment from the inflammatory bowel disease outpatient clinic. Esophagogastroduodenoscopies with biopsies of the stomach and proximal duodenum were performed. Presence of Helicobacter pylori bacteria was assessed by Giemsa staining. (3) Results: We included 58 patients. Erosive esophagitis was identified in 25 patients (43.1%), gastritis was diagnosed in 32 patients (55.2%) and erosive duodenitis was found in eight (13.8%). The most frequent histopathological finding in the H. pylori-positive group was increased inflammatory activity in the gastric body and antrum, with a predominance of mononuclear and polymorphonuclear cells. In turn, the most frequent finding in the H. pylori-negative group was chronic inflammation with predominance of mononuclear cells. Focally enhanced gastritis was identified in four patients (6.9%), all of whom were negative for H. pylori. Granulomas were not observed. H. pylori infection was present in 19 patients (32.8%). (4) Conclusions: Nonspecific endoscopic and histological findings were frequent in patients with Crohn’s disease. Focally enhanced gastritis was uncommon and observed only in H. pylori-negative patients. The time from the diagnosis, patient age, and therapy in use may have influenced the nondetection of epithelioid granuloma.
