Abstract

Hand-foot syndrome, also known as palmar-plantar dysesthesia, is a drug reaction characterized by dysesthesia, erythema, and edema desquamation in the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. Cytarabine, docetaxel, ARA-C, capecitabine and 5-FU are the drugs related with hand-foot syndrome. In our case, erythema and edema desquamation developed on the dorsal area of the hand and wrist after capecitabine treatment. The lesion is reported because its location is rare and it has not been reported before.

Özet

Palmar-plantar eritrodizestezi sendromu olarak da bilinen el ayak sendromu, çeşitli kemoterapik ajanların kullanımı sonrasında gelişen bir ilaç reaksiyonudur. Palmar-plantar bölgelerde çeşitli derecelerde dizestezi, eritem ve ödemle beraber deskuamasyon izlenir. Dosetaksel, Ara-C, kapesitabin ve 5 FU başlıca sorumlu ajanlardır. Olgumuzda kapesitabin tedavisi sonrası el üstü ve el bileğinde eritem, ödem, deskuamasyon gelişti. Lezyonun lokalizasyon yerinin nadir olması ve litatürde daha önce bildirilmemesi nedeni ile sunuldu.
