Nekrobiotisches Xanthogranulom bei IgG-kappa-Plasmozytom und Quincke-�dem

Abstract: Necrobiotic xanthogranuloma is a non-X histiocytosis with unknown pathogenesis. It is associated with paraproteinaemia, and in rare cases with multiple myeloma. A decreased level of C1 inhibitor has been found in several cases without clinical manifestations of Quincke oedema. We report on a patient with necrobiotic xanthogranuloma and myeloma, in whom we found a decreased level of C1 inhibitor and recurrent episodes of manifest Quincke oedema. The indirect detection of auto-antibodies against the paraprotein … Show more

“…Decreased levels of C1 inhibitor have also been reported in NXG patients and are thought to be due to autoantibodies against the circulating paraprotein associated with NXG, which becomes deposited in the skin. The deposited paraprotein triggers immune complex formation, causing C1 inactivator to be consumed 31 . The deposited paraprotein may also have functional features of a lipoprotein and therefore may bind to lipoprotein receptors of the histiocytes, inducing xanthoma formation 32…”

“…Iritis and uveitis have also been reported. Moreover, NXG is associated with monoclonal gammopathy and, often, plasma proliferative disorders including multiple myeloma [1,5,6,8]. A case of a woman with periorbital lesions is reported.…”

“…Die assoziierte Paraproteinämie kann persistieren, oder es kann sich ein manifestes Plasmozytom entwickeln. In einem Fall wurde auch ein im Verlauf entstandenes MDS mitgeteilt [16] gen, chronisch lymphatischer Leukämie, Diabetes mellitus, nephrotischem Syndrom bei Amyloidose der Niere, COPD, Lungenfibrose, Kardiomyopathie, arterieller Hypertonie, QuinckeÖdem (durch Verminderung des C1-Inhibitors, siehe oben), Polyneuropathie, Morbus Basedow, Prolactin sezernierendem Hypophysenadenom, juveniler Arthritis, Magen-, Lungen-, Rektum-und Zervixkarzinom berichtet [3,4,10,16,17,20,26]. EKG-Verände-rungen wie AV-Block, linksanteriorer Hemiblock, abnorme T-Wellen und echokardiographische Veränderungen wie linksventrikuläre Hypertrophie und ventrikuläre Funktionsstörungen wurden nachgewiesen [26].…”

“…mit Lipiden verbinden und sich diese Komplexe in der Haut ablagern und so zu einer Nekrose und Fremdkörperreaktion führen [1,10], wobei in unserem Fall Ablagerungen von Leichtkettenamyloid als Auslöser angenommen werden könnten. Eine aktuelle japanische Untersuchung fand heraus, dass eine beschleunigte Komplementreaktion und erhöhte M-CSF-(Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor-)Spiegel zu einer übermäßigen Cholesterylester-und LDL-(Low Density Lipoprotein-) Aufnahme von Monozyten führen, wodurch es dann zu einer Xanthomatose des Gewebes und außerdem zu einer Hypocholesterinämie kommt [15].…”
