We report the case of a 56-year-old Japanese female with Graves' disease associated with localized myxedema on the nasal dorsum. The patient developed localized myxedema concomitantly with hyperthyroidism before antithyroid therapy was given. The lesion was totally removed surgically, as it was small and well circumscribed. Although unusual locations of localized myxedema have been reported elsewhere, there is to date no case of localized myxedema on the nasal dorsum without involvement of the pretibial area reported in the literature. We discuss this unique feature of our patient.
我们报告了一例56岁的日本女性,患有格雷夫斯病并伴有鼻背部局限性黏液性水肿。该患者在接受抗甲状腺治疗之前,在出现甲状腺功能亢进的同时发生了局限性黏液性水肿。由于病变较小且边界清晰,故通过手术将其完全切除。尽管其他地方曾报道过局限性黏液性水肿的不寻常部位,但迄今为止,文献中尚无鼻背部局限性黏液性水肿而无胫前区受累的病例报道。我们讨论了该患者这一独特特征。
