Abstract

Various dermatoses associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). have been described Recently, a specific skin lesion termed “intravascular histiocytosis” has been proposed as a new entity among these dermatoses. We report a 58-year-old man with an 8-years history of RA who presented with numerous variable sized erythematous papules, plaques and nodules on the V region of the neck, right femoral region and bilateralshins. Histopathological examination of these lesions demonstrated intraluminal aggregates mainly composed of CD68-positive histiocytes in markedly dilated vessels. In addition, after 6 months of follow-up, the patient was diagnosed as Kaposi sarcoma (KS) for another skin lesion. We discuss the pathogenesis of this association andcompare with other cases reported in the literature.

Özet

Romatoid artrit (RA) ile ilişkili çeşitli dermatozlar tanımlanmaktadır. Son zamanlarda, “intravasküler histiyositoz” olarak isimlendirilen spesifik deri lezyonu, bu dermatozlar arasında yeni bir antite olarak öne sürülmektedir. Biz, boyun V bölgesi, sağ femoral bölge ve bilateral bacaklarda çeşitli boyutlarda çok sayıda eritematöz papül,plak ve nodüllerle başvuran 8 yıllık RA öyküsüne sahip 58 yaşında erkek hasta rapor ettik. Bu lezyonların histopatolojik incelemesinde, belirgin şekilde dilate damarlarda, başlıca CD68-pozitif histiyositlerden oluşan intralüminal topluluklar izlendi. Ek olarak, hasta 6 ay sonra bir başka deri lezyonundan Kaposi Sarkomu tanısı aldı. Biz, bu birlikteliğin patogenezini literatürde rapor edilen diğer olgularla karşılaştırarak tartıştık.
