The autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) was first introduced in 2011 to provide a more precise syndromic characterization of clinical manifestations observed in patients exposed to adjuvant substances such as biopolymers and silicone, among others. The clinical spectrum of this entity is variable, ranging from local involvement to potentially fatal immune-mediated systemic involvement. The interest in ASIA has grown in recent years, reinforcing diagnostic criteria and deepening the understanding of its pathophysiological behavior. This case report highlights a distinct range of clinical symptoms, such as general symptoms, advanced-stage chronic kidney disease, persistent hypercalcemia with suppressed parathyroid hormone (PTH), bilateral nephrocalcinosis, cutaneous calcinosis, and the presence of positive autoantibodies, emphasizing the significance of understanding this condition.
佐剂诱导的自身免疫/炎症综合征(ASIA)于2011年首次被提出,旨在更精确地对接触生物聚合物和硅酮等佐剂物质的患者中观察到的临床表现进行综合征特征描述。该病症的临床谱具有多样性,从局部受累到可能致命的免疫介导的全身受累。近年来,对ASIA的关注度不断提高,强化了诊断标准并加深了对其病理生理行为的理解。本病例报告突出了一系列独特的临床症状,如全身症状、晚期慢性肾病、甲状旁腺激素(PTH)受抑制的持续性高钙血症、双侧肾钙质沉着症、皮肤钙质沉着症以及自身抗体阳性,强调了认识这种病症的重要性。
