Hanseníase históide de localização restrita

Abstract: José Carlos Gomes Sardinha 5A hanseníase possui amplo espectro de manifestações clínicas relacionadas a três processos: dano celular e tecidual em função da multiplicação e disseminação dos bacilos; resposta imune do hospedeiro; e complicações do acometimento dos nervos periféri-cos.1 Nas formas clínicas em que o hospedeiro apresenta alta resistência, o bacilo raramente é demonstrado, as lesões são bem delimitadas e em pequeno número. Nas formas de baixa resistência, o bacilo é facilmente detectado, havendo gr… Show more

“…The patient’s clinical evolution depends on the number of bacilli present and the host immunopathological response. 3 , 4 Recognition of clinical forms and early diagnosis are key to disease control. According to current regulations, recognition of leprosy must be primarily clinical.…”

“…Apesar de a forma histoide ser rara e de difícil diagnóstico, apresenta baciloscopia positiva e, geramente, uma excelente resposta ao tratamento para forma multibacilar preconizado pela Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS). 11 Diante disso, evidencia-se que apesar das características atípicas da Hanseníase Histoide de Wade, com tratamento adequado e precoce apresenta boa resposta e prognóstico de cura. A terapêutica preconizada foi a poliquimioterapia multibacilar, visto que a forma histoide é um subtipo da Virchowiana.…”

“…It is rarely observed in patients who have not undergone prior treatment [2][3][4] , which reinforces the importance of this case report. The etiopathogenesis of HL is not well understood 5 . However, it has been suggested to occur as a result of the action of drug-resistant mutant bacilli, or due to a decrease in cellular systemic immunity, with corresponding increase in local cellular and humoral immunity 6 .…”
