RESUMO
Paciente do sexo feminino, de 65 anos, foi admitida em nossa instituição com síndrome do dedo azul. Durante a investigação diagnóstica para as principais etiologias possíveis, foi evidenciado adenocarcinoma de cabeça de pâncreas, tendo sido elaborada associação como manifestação paraneoplásica. A investigação da etiologia da síndrome do dedo azul é de suma importância para a conduta terapêutica adequada, já que as causas podem ter evolução extremamente grave na ausência de intervenção, como é o caso dos pacientes que apresentam tal síndrome secundária à neoplasias.(AU)
ABSTRACT
A 65-year-old female patient was admitted to our institution with the blue toe syndrome. During the diagnostic investigation for possible etiologies, pancreatic head carcinoma was evidenced, and an association as a paraneoplastic manifestation was established. The investigation of the etiology of the blue toe syndrome is very important for the proper treatment, since the causes may have extremely serious development in the absence of intervention, as it is the case of patients with this syndrome secondary to cancer.(AU)
