A patient with Philadelphia-positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) was diagnosed with cutaneous sarcoidosis after treatment with interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha). Following IFN-alpha dose reduction, the skin lesions disappeared. Few cases of sarcoidosis associated with IFN treatment have been reported, and only in one patient with pre-existing CML. Our patient was unique in that (1) the sarcoidosis was induced by the IFN-alpha treatment alone, (2) it developed de novo, and (3) it was confined to the skin.
一名费城染色体阳性(Ph+)慢性粒细胞白血病(CML)患者在接受α干扰素(IFN-α)治疗后被诊断为皮肤结节病。在减少IFN-α剂量后,皮肤病变消失。仅有少数与IFN治疗相关的结节病病例报道,且仅1例患者有CML病史。我们的患者具有独特性,在于(1)结节病仅由IFN-α治疗诱发,(2)为新发疾病,(3)且仅局限于皮肤。
