Palisaded neutrophilic and granulomatous dermatitis (PNGD) is an uncommon skin eruption most often associated with rheumatoid arthritis and other immune-mediated diseases. We present 4 cases to familiarize rheumatologists with the clinical presentation and histopathology of PNGD.
We report 4 cases to illustrate the clinical and histologic spectrum of this rare skin disease found in rheumatologic patients. The disease pathogenesis and treatment options are discussed.
All 4 patients presented with symmetric erythematous-to-violaceous papules and plaques that, upon biopsy, revealed a dermatitis composed of variable numbers of histiocytes and neutrophils. Some cases responded to topical corticosteroid treatment or to dapsone, whereas others resolved spontaneously.
PNGD is a rare cutaneous finding in patients with a variety of immune-mediated systemic diseases, most often rheumatoid arthritis. It is a benign condition that may spontaneously remit or may respond favorably to topical corticosteroids or dapsone.
栅栏状嗜中性粒细胞和肉芽肿性皮炎(PNGD)是一种不常见的皮疹,最常与类风湿关节炎及其他免疫介导性疾病相关。我们报告4例病例,以使风湿病学家熟悉PNGD的临床表现和组织病理学特征。
我们报告4例病例,以说明在风湿病患者中发现的这种罕见皮肤病的临床和组织学特征。并对疾病的发病机制和治疗选择进行了讨论。
所有4例患者均出现对称性红斑至紫红色丘疹和斑块,活检显示为一种由数量不等的组织细胞和嗜中性粒细胞组成的皮炎。部分病例对局部皮质类固醇治疗或氨苯砜有反应,而其他病例则自行缓解。
PNGD是多种免疫介导性全身性疾病患者中罕见的皮肤表现,最常见于类风湿关节炎。它是一种良性疾病,可能会自发缓解,或对局部皮质类固醇或氨苯砜反应良好。
