Abstract

Urticarial dermatitis is an uncommon inflammatory dermatosis characterized by persistent pruritic urticarial and eczematous eruptions associated with a dermal hypersensitivity reaction pattern on histopathology. We report a case of severe refractory urticarial dermatitis resistant to multiple therapies, including corticosteroids, cyclosporine, methotrexate, dapsone and azathioprine, which demonstrated significant clinical improvement following treatment with mycophenolate mofetil. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of urticarial dermatitis and supports mycophenolate mofetil as a potential therapeutic option in refractory disease.

霉酚酸酯成功治疗难治性荨麻疹皮炎。
荨麻疹性皮炎是一种罕见的炎症性皮肤病,其特征是持续瘙痒性荨麻疹和湿疹爆发,在组织病理学上与皮肤过敏反应模式有关。我们报告一例严重难治性荨麻疹皮炎,对多种治疗,包括皮质类固醇,环孢素,甲氨蝶呤,氨苯砜和硫唑嘌呤耐药,经霉酚酸酯治疗后,临床表现出显著改善。本病例突出了荨麻疹皮炎的诊断挑战,并支持霉酚酸酯作为难治性疾病的潜在治疗选择。
