Abstract

A previously healthy 15-year-old girl was sent to the Pediatric Emergency Department by the general practitioner due to suspicion of a hematological condition. The girl presented with ecchymotic lesions on the anterior region of the thorax and antero-proximal region of the upper limbs, which had apparently worsened in the last 24 hours. She denied trauma or impact sports, fever or recent infections, and blood loss or other symptoms. Laboratory evaluation showed no alterations and urine toxicology screening was negative. When confronted with normal laboratory evaluation, the girl confessed intentional self-inflicted injuries following a discussion with her mother. Parents were made aware of the situation, and a pediatric psychiatry consultation was recommended. After discharge, follow-up in the girl’s home country was assured.With this report, the author intend to raise awareness of the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion to non-suicidal self-injury, identifying alarm signs and establishing early preventive strategies.
皮肤科临床病例
一名以前健康的15岁女孩因怀疑血液病被全科医生送到儿科急诊科。该女孩表现为胸前区和上肢前近端区淤血病变,在过去24小时内明显恶化。她否认有外伤或冲击力运动、发烧或近期感染、失血或其他症状。实验室评估显示没有改变,尿液毒理学筛查呈阴性。当面对正常的实验室评估时,女孩在与母亲讨论后承认故意自残。家长们意识到了这种情况,并建议进行儿科精神病学咨询。出院后,在女孩的祖国进行随访。通过这份报告,作者打算提高人们对非自杀性自伤保持高度怀疑指数的重要性的认识,识别警报信号并建立早期预防策略。
