A 42‐year‐old female with a personal history of Grade II infiltrating ductal breast carcinoma, treated under surgical procedure in 2018, whose hormonal profile included estrogen, progesteronic and HER‐2 positive receptors, and a Ki67 proliferative index (20–25%), was referred to our dermatological outpatient clinic complaining worsening of her chronic spontaneous urticaria. The patient was under treatment with etuximide, exemestane, anastrozole, and trastuzumab. Our patient reported intermittent episodes of hives of 8 years of evolution with good control with second‐generation antihistamines. However, in the past year, the intensity and frequency of the outbreaks was increased with the development of angioedema until completing 23 consultations through the emergency department being treated in all of the episodes with short cycles of oral corticosteroids. This case reported is particularly complex due to different points that we develop below: (a) oncological patient as special population; (b) differential diagnosis with other forms of urticaria such as vasculitis urticaria, inducible urticaria, and autoimmune progesterone dermatitis; (c) spontaneous chronic urticaria of difficult control at labeled dose of omalizumab; (d) concomitant treatment with another biological drug.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
