Abstract

A patient with severe erythema nodosum due to Behçet's disease is reported on here. Erythema nodosum lesions did not respond to classical treatments; however, they cleared after erythromycin treatment, which was prescribed for the treatment of coincidental erythrasma. Erythromycin treatment appears to be an effective treatment option in erythema nodosum. The hypothetical anti-inflammatory effects of erythromycin, besides its antibiotic properties, are reviewed and discussed to explain such a clinical improvement.

摘要

本文报告了一名患有白塞病所致严重结节性红斑的患者。结节性红斑病变对传统治疗无反应；然而，在因同时存在红癣而开具的红霉素治疗后，病变消退。红霉素治疗似乎是结节性红斑的一种有效治疗选择。除了其抗生素特性外，还对白霉素的假设性抗炎作用进行了综述和讨论，以解释这种临床改善情况。
