Erythema induratum and chronic hepatitis C infection

O Eritema induratum de Bazin é uma doença rara, considerada uma reacção de hipersensibilidade ao Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Caracteriza-se pelo aparecimento de nódulos firmes, dolorosos, por vezes, ulcerados nos membros inferiores. Descrevemos o caso de uma doente do sexo feminino, 83 anos de idade, com queixas de aproximadamente 3 meses de duração de tumefacção cervical direita indolor e de nódulos subcutâneos de superfície eritematosa envolvendo ambas as pernas.PALAVRAS-CHAVE – Antituberculosos; Eritema Induratum; Mycobacterium tuberculosis; Paniculite; Vasculite.

The panniculitides comprise a group of heterogeneous inflammatory diseases that involve the subcutaneous fat. Histopathological study is required for the specific diagnosis of these disorders, because different panniculitides usually show the same clinical appearance – which typically consists of erythematous nodules on the lower extremities. However, the histopathological study of panniculitis is difficult because of the poor correlation between clinical and pathological findings and the changing microscopic appearances as the lesions evolve. Furthermore, large scalpel incisional biopsies are required in order to evaluate panniculitis fully. From the histopathological point of view, all panniculitides are somewhat mixed, because the inflammatory infiltrate involves both the septa and lobules. However, differentiation between a predominantly septal and a predominantly lobular panniculitis is usually straightforward at scanning magnification on the basis of which subcutaneous structures are the more intensely involved by the inflammatory infiltrate.
