Aseptic abscesses syndrome is a rare but increasingly recognized disease that falls within the spectrum of autoinflammatory disorders. Here, we describe the case of a patient who presented with abdominal pain and fever, along with multiple abdominal and extra-abdominal abscesses, in the absence of underlying hematologic, autoimmune, infectious, or neoplastic conditions. Initially, the patient responded to glucocorticoids, but experienced several flares upon discontinuation, leading to the initiation of treatment with a TNFα inhibitor. After 5 years, an attempt to discontinue treatment resulted in a new flare of the disease. Remission was eventually achieved with a biosimilar TNFα inhibitor, albeit requiring shortened infusion intervals.
无菌性脓肿综合征是一种罕见但越来越被认识到的疾病,属于自身炎症性疾病范畴。在此,我们描述了一例患者,该患者出现腹痛和发热,伴有多个腹部和腹部外脓肿,且不存在潜在的血液学、自身免疫性、感染性或肿瘤性疾病。最初,患者对糖皮质激素有反应,但停药后经历了几次病情复发,导致开始使用肿瘤坏死因子α(TNFα)抑制剂进行治疗。5年后,尝试停药导致疾病再次发作。最终使用一种生物类似物TNFα抑制剂实现了缓解,尽管需要缩短输注间隔时间。
