ABSTRACT

El penfigoide del embarazo (PE), denominado también penfigoide gestacional (PG) o herpes gestationis (HG), es una enfermedad ampollar autoinmunitaria poco frecuente asociada al embarazo. Usualmente ocurre durante o tercer trimestre de la gestación, pero puede presentarse en cualquier etapa de ésta e incluso en el puerperio. La enfermedad tiene un inicio súbito, con placas eritematosas anulares urticariales sobre la que se desarrollan ampollas, las que progresan a vesículas y bulas intensamente pruriginosas. Presentamos el caso clínico de una embarazada con una erupción papuloampollar cuya clínica e histopatología fueron concordante con penfigoide del embarazo.


Pemphigoid of pregnancy also called pemphigoid gestationis (PG) or herpes gestationis (HG) is a rare autoinmune bullous disease associated with pregnancy. It usually occurs during second or third trimester of gestation but can occur at any stage of it and even in the postpartum period. The disease has a sudden onset, with erythematous annular urticarial plaques on which blister develop, envolving into vesicles and bullae intensely itchy. We report the case of a pregnant woman with a rash of papules and blisters whose clinical and histopathology were consistent with pemphigoid gestationis.

ABSTRACT

We performed a thorough neuro-otological evaluation and a radiological study of the cervical spine in 102 patients with vestibular symptoms. A group of 20 asymptomatic subjects served as control. Some degree of cervical spondylosis was found in 121 of 122 patients but also in the majority of control subjects. No relationship was observed between the degree of cervical spondylosis and vestibular abnormalities. Instead, the latter were strongly related to age. Thus, an age dependent microvascular damage may be more likely as an etiological factor for vestibular symptoms in the elderly.
