RESUMEN
El RS3PE es una patología infrecuente de la esfera reumatológica que afecta a adultos mayores, manifestándose como poliartritis simétrica más edema con signos de fóvea. Si bien suele tener una excelente respuesta a corticoides, debe tenerse en considera-ción su asociación a neoplasias, lo cual determina el pronóstico de la enfermedad. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 75 años, con artritis y severo edema de extremida-des, el cual revirtió completamente con el uso de prednisona.
ABSTRACT
RS3PE is a rare rheumatological syndrome that affects older adults, manifesting as symmetrical polyarthritis and limbs edema. Although it usually has an excellent re-sponse to corticosteroids, its association with neoplasms must be taken into con-sideration, which determines the prognosis of the disease. We report the case of a 75-year-old man with arthritis and severe edema of limbs, which completely reversed with the use of prednisone.
