[Pseudo-thrombophlebitis syndrome: diagnostic and therapeutic considerations of 2 cases]. / Síndrome pseudotromboflebítico: consideraciones diagnósticas y terapéuticas a propósito de dos casos.

Pseudo-thrombophlebitic syndrome is a frequent clinical entity but many times insufficiently diagnosed. Described more than a century ago by Baker it is characterized for being clinically undistinguishable from a true thrombophlebitis, being its cause the presence of a synovial cyst in the knee joint (Baker's cyst) which can be complicated or not (breakage or dissection). Diagnosis is easy and is based mainly in echography and arthrography. The anticoagulant therapy used in true thrombophlebitis is contraindicated in this syndrome.

We present the case of a patient diagnosed of IgA multiple myeloma who, four months after being diagnosed and after four cycles with VCAP with good response, showed high fever and constitutional syndrome; multiple subcutaneous nodules appeared during his hospitalization. Biopsy of the bone marrow, and of one of the nodules showed an immunoblastic lymphoma. Even with treatment the patient died due to a pneumonia and a digestive hemorrhage.
