ABSTRACT

Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 62 años con un cuadro de tres años de evolución, caracterizado por placas y pápulas eritematosas arciformes que comenzaron en cara, extendiéndose luego al resto del cuerpo, asociado a baja de peso y depresión. Después de un completo estudio y dos biopsias de piel se diagnóstica eritema necrolítico migratorio (ENM). El ENM junto con estomatitis/glositis, baja de peso, diarrea, diabetes y anemia forman el síndrome paraneoplásico asociado al tumor de células a pancreáticas, llamado síndrome del glucagonoma, El ENM corresponde a lesiones maculopapulares, coalescentes, de borde serpiginoso, acompañadas de una bula central que se erosiona y forma costras. La biopsia cutánea muestra hiperplasia psoriasiforme y espongiótica, paraqueratosis y separación de las capas superficiales de la epidermis. La resección del tumor conduce a la resolución del ENM. Presentamos este caso y revisión del tema por la baja frecuencia de esta enfermedad y para reforzar lo importante de su sospecha temprana.


We report the case of o 62 year old woman with a 3 year history of erythematous arciform plaques and papules that began in the face and spread to the rest of the body. These lesions were associated with depression and weight loss. After a comprehensive study and two skin biopsies, necrolytic migratory erythema (NME) was diagnosed together with glossitis/stomatitis, weight loss, diarrhea, diabetes and anemia, NME is part of the paraneoplastic syndrome associated with a cell pancreatic tumor, known as glucagonoma syndrome NME lesions are characterized by a coalescent maculopapular rash with a serpiginous edge and a central bulla that erodes and become crusted. Histological studies show a psoriasiform and spongiotic hyperplasia, porakeratosis, and detachment of the superficial layers of the epidermis. ENM usually resolves after tumor resection. We present this case and a review of the literature because of the low frequency of this disease and to reinforce the importance of its early suspicion.
