Abstract

Löfgren syndrome (LS) is a unique acute manifestation of sarcoidosis and characterized by erythema nodosum, bilateral hilar lymphadenectasis, and/or bilateral anklearthritis or periarthritis. A 37-year-old female patient with LS presented with fever accompanied by multiple joint swelling and pain, nodular skin erythema, and bilateral hilar lymphadenectasis. The patient had received treatment involving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and glucocorticoids in other hospitals, but the effects were poor, and the conditions reemerged. The LS duration has lasted for more than 3 months. Following traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment, syndrome differentiation as well as giving patients oral Chinese medicine decoction, the symptoms of the patient were rapidly relieved within one week and did not recur during a six-month follow-up period. This case is the first clinical report of acute sarcoidosis LS treated using TCM and reflects the significant advantages of this form of therapy in emergency treatment

基于综合征分型的中药方剂治疗可爱的肉样瘤洛夫格伦综合征：基于病例的综述

洛夫格伦综合征（Löfgren syndrome，LS）是肉样瘤病的一种独特的急性表现，其特征是结节性红斑、双侧肺门淋巴结肿大和/或双侧踝关节炎或关节周围炎。一名 37 岁的女性 LS 患者表现为发热，伴有多处关节肿胀和疼痛、结节性皮肤红斑和双侧肺门淋巴结肿大。患者曾在其他医院接受非甾体抗炎药和糖皮质激素治疗，但效果不佳，病情再次复发。LS 持续时间已超过 3 个月。经过中医治疗、辨证分型以及给予患者口服中药煎剂后，患者的症状在一周内迅速缓解，随访6个月未再复发。本病例是首例使用中医药治疗急性肉样瘤病 LS 的临床报告，反映了中医药在急诊治疗中的显著优势。
