ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) is a rare condition characterized by swelling of the extremities, sclerodermatous evolution and frequent hypereosinophilia. Hematological disorders, including aplastic anemia, solid tumors and autoimmune diseases, may be associated with EF. EF is usually not associated with granulomatous diseases. CASE REPORT Herein we describe the case of an 80-year-old man with symmetrical swelling and sclerosis of the legs, typical of EF, associated with skin and lymph node granulomas. Oral prednisone treatment resulted in complete clinical remission.DISCUSSION:
Association of EF and granulomatous disease is uncommon. Our case highlights the possible association of EF with sarcoidosis-like reactions.Palavras-chave
