Nakane, Yutaka Shimada","doi":"10.1002/tkm2.1357","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/tkm2.1357","url":null,"abstract":"Autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy (AAG) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by various autonomic symptoms and is caused by anti-ganglionic acetylcholine receptor (gAChR) antibodies. The gAChR consists of two α3 and three β4 subunits and mediates fast synaptic transmission in all peripheral autonomic ganglia in the autonomic nervous system. Most patients with AAG are treated with immunotherapy followed by oral prednisolone or immunosuppressants. No cases of AAG treated with immunotherapy combined with Kampo medicine have been reported. Herein, we report an AAG patient who showed clinical improvement after immunotherapy concurrent with saikokaryukotsuboreito (SRBT) and hochuekkito (HET). A 24-year-old woman presented with post-infection cough that first appeared nine months prior to presentation. She was admitted to our hospital because of a four-month history of orthostatic dizziness, palpitation, headache, early satiety, appetite loss, nausea, and vomiting. The patient was positive for anti-gAChRα3 antibodies (Abs) (antibody index [AI]: 1.712 [normal range < 1.0]). She was diagnosed with AAG and subsequently treated with two courses of intravenous methylprednisolone therapy (IVMP). Her autonomic symptoms and orthostatic tachycardia gradually improved, and her anti-gAChRα3 Ab serum level returned to within the normal range (AI: 0.602). However, her orthostatic dizziness, palpitations, and cough relapsed after she suffered from nephritis six months later, and she was readmitted to our hospital. Her height, weight, and body mass index were 159.8 cm, 49.7 kg, and 19.46 kg/m, respectively. Her pulse rate increased to 150 beats/min immediately after standing, and she exhibited syncope 1 min after standing. Upon admission, she presented with a wide range of autonomic symptoms related to orthostatic intolerance (OI) including lightheadedness and palpitations, dry mouth, paroxysmal coughing, decreased trunk sweating, hyperhidrosis of the palms and soles, cold hands and feet, peripheral paresthesia, nausea, vomiting, early satiety, constipation, and nocturia. She also complained of frustration and depressed mood because of chronic work stress, difficulty falling asleep, susceptibility to fatigue and cold, rare menstruation, menstrual pain and muscle cramps. The physical examination findings were: pulse signs, medium pattern; tongue signs, purple with white coating; abdominal signs, intermediate; epigastric discomfort and resistance, right hypochondriac discomfort and resistance, brisk pulsation in both the supraand para-umbilical region, right para-umbilical tenderness and resistance, and weakness of the lower abdominal region. When her anti-gAChRα3 Ab level became positive (AI: 1.359), she was treated with two courses of IVMP, followed by oral administration of 20 mg of prednisolone (PSL) per day along with 7.5 g of SRBT (TJ-12, Tsumura & Co., Tokyo, Japan) and 7.5 g of HET (TJ-41, Tsumura & Co.)

The following were the Kampo medical findings: absence of tongue swelling, prominent sublingual veins, intermediate floating and sunken pulse, and strong abdomen. Based on Kampo medicine, he was diagnosed with blood stasis and an excess heat pattern.

The swelling progressed to the right wrist, and she was referred to our hospital for additional treatment. She was obese, with a height of 151 cm and a weight of 86.2 kg. The swelling of her right hand had spread beyond the wrist to the forearm. She had rheumatoid arthritis and was taking multiple immunosuppressive drugs. Despite using multiple immunosuppressive medications, the swelling of the right hand had expanded toward the body, so we treated her in the hospital with mamushi antivenom. On the day after admission to our hospital, the swelling and redness began to extend beyond the shoulder joint to the trunk (Figure. 1a). The right palm was swollen and had no wrinkles (Figure. 1b). Due to severe pain, she desired additional treatment, and hence we used the Japanese herbal medicine eppikajutsuto (EPJT). Her Kampo medical findings were: upon examination, the patient showed a good appetite and had no mood disturbance. Her skin was not dry. She was edematous throughout the body. Her right arm was reddish and hot. The tongue showed no swelling. Sublingual veins were less prominent. Her pulse was intermediate floating and sunken. Abdominal strength was strong. There were no other abdominal signs and findings. Kampo medical diagnosis: the patient was diagnosed as having fluid disturbance, excess and heat pattern. On the day after the start of EPJT, there was marked improvement in both the swelling and redness in the right upper limb (Figure. 1c), and wrinkles appeared on the right palm (Figure. 1d). The swelling in the right palm almost disappeared on the third day after the start of EPJT. She was discharged on day 7 of admission. As there is yet no reliable treatment for mamushi bites, management of the general condition is the mainstay of treatment. It has been reported that the treatment of mamushi bites is based on the grade of associated symptoms [1]. In our patient, the swelling in the right hand rapidly spread to the upper arm. Hence, we decided to use antivenom and injected it within 6 h from the mamushi bite. However, on the day after admission, the swelling and redness in the right hand had spread to the trunk. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no new and effective methods to control disease progression in such cases. However, Japanese herbal medicine could provide an alternative.","PeriodicalId":23213,"journal":{"name":"Traditional & Kampo Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75808605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
