Eosinophilic fasciitis associated with IgG4-related disease
A 52-year-old male presented with pain and induration of the skin and muscles. Physical examination revealed swelling and induration of the skin and muscles of the arms, forearms, hands, thorax, abdomen, and legs, accompanied by the characteristic orange peel appearance. In addition to bilateral hearing impairment, there was enlargement of both lacrimal glands. Laboratory results revealed hyper-eosinophilia, elevated C-reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hypocomplementaemia, polyclonal hypergammaglobulinaemia, elevated IgE, IgG, and increased IgG1 and IgG4. MRI of the lower limbs reported enhanced contrast in the muscles of both thighs with thickening of the semimembranosus vastus lateralis fascia and arms. A skin and fascia biopsy indicated lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, eosinophils, and non-storiform fibrosis. Immunohistochemistry showed IgG4 positivity in less than 10%, with an IgG4/lgG range of less than 40%. The patient meets the criteria for eosinophilic fasciitis and ACR/EULAR criteria for IgG4-RD. For this reason, we would like to report the first case found of eosinophilic fasciitis associated with IgG4-RD.
期刊介绍:
The Colombian Journal of Rheumatology (Revista Colombiana de Reumatología) is the official organ of the Colombian Association of Rheumatology (Asociación Colombiana de Reumatología) and the Central American, Caribbean and Andean Association of Rheumatology (Asociación Centroamericana Caribe Andina de Reumatología) - ACCA. It was created in December 1993 with the purpose of disseminating scientific information derived from primary and secondary research and presenting cases coming from the practice of Rheumatology in Latin America. Since its foundation, the Journal has been characterized by its plurality with subjects of all rheumatic and osteomuscular pathologies, in the form of original articles, historical articles, economic evaluations, and articles of reflection and education in Medicine. It covers an extensive area of topics ranging from the broad spectrum of the clinical aspects of rheumatology and related areas in autoimmunity (both in pediatric and adult pathologies), to aspects of basic sciences. It is an academic tool for the different members of the academic and scientific community at their different levels of training, from undergraduate to post-doctoral degrees, managing to integrate all actors inter and trans disciplinarily. It is intended for rheumatologists, general internists, specialists in related areas, and general practitioners in the country and abroad. It has become an important space in the work of all rheumatologists from Central and South America.
