A 12-year-old girl with trisomy 21 (Downs syndrome) presented with an approximate 2-year history of an asymptomatic eruption on the right upper arm and left lateral neck that was clinically and histologically diagnostic of elastosis perforans serpiginosa (EPS). EPS is a perforating dermatosis affecting the face, ear, neck, extremities, or trunk. It occurs with greater frequency in persons with trisomy 21, as well as some other genetic syndromes and after D-penicillamine therapy. It has also been reported as a sporadic, presumably unrelated disorder in several acquired diseases.
一名患有21三体综合征(唐氏综合征)的12岁女孩,右上臂和左侧颈部出现无症状皮疹约2年,临床和组织学诊断为匐行性穿通性弹力纤维病(EPS)。EPS是一种累及面部、耳部、颈部、四肢或躯干的穿通性皮肤病。它在21三体综合征患者以及其他一些遗传综合征患者中更常见,也见于青霉胺治疗后。在一些后天性疾病中,它也被报道为一种散发性、可能无关的病症。
