Primary Cutaneous Lymphoma Registry of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (AEDV): Data for the First 5 Years. / Registro de linfomas cutáneos primarios (RELCP) de la AEDV: datos tras 5 años de funcionamiento.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCL) are uncommon. Observations based on the first year of data from the Spanish Registry of Primary Cutaneous Lymphomas (RELCP, in its Spanish abbreviation) of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (AEDV) were published in February 2018. This report covers RELCP data for the first 5 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS: RELCP data were collected prospectively and included diagnosis, treatments, tests, and the current status of patients. We compiled descriptive statistics of the data registered during the first 5 years. RESULTS: Information on 2020 patients treated at 33 Spanish hospitals had been included in the RELCP by December 2021. Fifty-nine percent of the patients were men; the mean age was 62.2 years. The lymphomas were grouped into 4 large diagnostic categories: mycosis fungoides/Sézary syndrome, 1112 patients (55%); primary B-cell cutaneous lymphoma, 547 patients (27.1%); primary CD30+lymphoproliferative disorders, 222 patients (11%), and other T-cell lymphomas, 116 patients (5.8%). Nearly 75% of the tumors were registered in stage I. After treatment, 43.5% achieved complete remission and 27% were stable at the time of writing. Treatments prescribed were topical corticosteroids (1369 [67.8%]), phototherapy (890 patients [44.1%]), surgery (412 patients [20.4%]), and radiotherapy (384 patients [19%]). CONCLUSION: The characteristics of cutaneous lymphomas in Spain are similar to those reported for other series. The large size of the RELCP registry at 5 years has allowed us to give more precise descriptive statistics than in the first year. This registry facilitates the clinical research of the AEDV's lymphoma interest group, which has already published articles based on the RELCP data.

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis due to dextromethorphan.

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare, severe, pustular, cutaneous reaction. We report a case in which a patient developed AGEP after the intake of 3 different antitussive agents containing dextromethorphan as the only ingredient in common.

[The antiphospholipid syndrome, an update]. / Síndrome antifosfolípido, estado actual.

The antiphospholipid syndrome is an antibody mediated hypercoagulable state characterized by recurrent venous and arterial thromboembolic events. Several studies have determined that the frequency of antiphospholipid syndrome in patients presenting with a venous thromboembolic event is between 4% and 14%. Classical criteria include the presence of anticardiolipin antibody or lupus anticoagulant with typical complications of thrombosis or pregnancy loss. Other common associated manifestations include livedo reticularis, thrombocytopenia, valvular heart disease, and nephropathy with renal insufficiency, hypertension and proteinuria. Because of the high risk for recurrent thromboembolism in these patients, current recommendations suggest a longer, potentially lifelong, course of antithrombotic therapy following an initial event. For an initial venous thromboembolic event, a target INR of 2.0 to 3.0 is supported by two prospective, randomized clinical trials. In contrast, relatively limited data exist for an initial arterial thromboembolic event in patients who have the antiphospholipid syndrome, and therapeutic recommendations range from aspirin to warfarin with a high target INR. Recurrent thromboembolic events can be extremely difficult to treat, and some patients may benefit from the addition of immunosuppressive therapies. It is very important to evaluate in this setting additional, coincident prothrombotic risk factors.

Síndrome antifosfolípido, estado actual / The antiphospholipid sindrome, an update

El síndrome antifosfolípido afecta al campo de la practica médica de varias especialidades; es un estado de hipercoagulabilidad mediado por anticuerpos caracterizado por episodios de tromboembolismos arteriales y venosos, su frecuencia en pacientes que sufren un episodio de tromboembolismo venoso oscila entre un 14 a un 45%. Los criterios clásicos incluyen la presencia de anticuerpos anticardiolipina o anticoagulante lúpico, las complicaciones trombóticas y los abortos espontáneos. Otras manifestaciones frecuentes incluyen la livedo reticularis, trombocitopenia, enfermedad valvular cardiaca, nefropatía con insuficiencia renal, hipertensión y proteinuria. Se aconseja un tratamiento anticoagulante prolongado después del primer episodio trombótico, en caso de que ocurra un tromboembolismo venoso, se recomienda mantener el INR entre 2 y 3, por el contrario existen menos datos referentes al tratamiento en caso de que la afectación sea arterial en cuyo caso se aconseja el uso de aspirina y/o warfarina manteniendo niveles mas altos de INR. En caso que se presenten episodios tromboembólicos recurrentes de tromboembolismo algunos pacientes se pueden beneficiar del tratamiento con inmunosupresores, y en cualquier caso se debe de realizar un estudio que valore la existencia de factores protrombóticos
