“…Dysuria, penile oedema and phimosis due to genital lesions were observed during the 2022 mpox outbreak [22]. Acute tonsillitis, peritonsillar abscesses and supraglottitis can occur before skin lesions develop [49][50][51]. Ocular involvement was reported in 0.8-2.9% of cases during the 2022 outbreak [52].…”

ObjectiveThe 2022 global mpox outbreak disproportionately impacted people living with HIV. This review explores recent evidence on mpox in this group, focusing on clinical presentation, complications, treatment modalities and vaccine strategies.Recent findingsRecent studies have suggested that people with HIV diagnosed with mpox have a greater risk of proctitis and hospitalization compared with people without HIV. In addition, those with advanced immunosuppression face an elevated risk of severe mpox infection, which can lead to mortality. Comprehensive and prompt supportive care using antiretrovirals and mpox antivirals is crucial in this group. Although results from randomized clinical trials are still forthcoming, recent studies suggest that early initiation of tecovirimat can prevent disease progression in people with HIV. The non‐replicative attenuated smallpox vaccine is well tolerated and effective in preventing monkeypox virus infections in people with HIV. Further studies are needed regarding long‐term vaccine effectiveness for this population.ConclusionEvaluating the risk of severe mpox in people living with HIV requires assessing the level of immune suppression and viral control. Universal access to vaccination is imperative to prevent the resurgence of future outbreaks.

“…It is endemic in central and occidental Africa. In 2022, it caused a global outbreak considered by the World Health Organization as a public health emergency of international concern [ 2 ]. Its transmission is mainly human-to-human by large respiratory droplets and direct contact with mucocutaneous lesions.…”

“…Classically, it is presented with fever, lymphadenopathy, and a generalized cutaneous eruption. However, patients infected since the 2022 global outbreak showed more localised cutaneous lesions at different evolution stages and, less frequently, mucosal lesions [ 2 – 5 ]. In the absence of cutaneous lesions, diagnosis may be challenging.…”

Osteomyelitis is inflammation and or swelling of the bone. The infection site can either be at the bone or from another part of the body that has spread to the bone. Staphylococcus aureus and staphylococcus epidermis are responsible for most cases due to being a part of normal skin flora. Salmonella is rarely reported and accounts for 0.45% of all causative agents of salmonella. Salmonella osteomyelitis in immunocompetent adults is uncommon and occurs in approximately 0.8% of all Salmonella infections. Myositis is muscle inflammation that can be due to both infectious and non-infectious causes. Infectious causes can be classified into pyogenic or non-pyogenic. Infection-related myositis occurs due to bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial, or parasitic infections as the root cause. Bacteria and fungi are the most common cause of focal myositis. Myositis with Salmonella species is rare and has been reported with Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Enteritidis.
