Scleromyxedema is a rare clinical variant of primary cutaneous mucinosis. It is defined by a generalized papular and sclerodermoid eruption associated with monoclonal gammopathy. No specific definitive treatment is known and those tried have inconsistent results. The first‐line treatment is intravenous immunoglobulin infusions with variable response and frequent relapse. We describe, here, a patient with scleromyxedema with lambda monoclonal gammopathy treated effectively with low‐dose lenalidomide and dexamethasone. There was no clinical or biological relapse after 3 years of follow‐up. In our opinion, agents targeting the abnormal plasma cell clone like lenalidomide are the most promising in the treatment of scleromyxedema.
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.
