| Popis: |
A 60-year-old man was admitted because of subacutely progressive sensory disturbance characterized by fluctuating dysesthesia and light pain on the skin of his hands and feet. He exhibited mononeuritis multiplex, and a plaque with sloughing was observed on the left side of his back. Sural nerve biopsy revealed marked thickening of the perineurium with vascularization, and no necrotizing vasculitis. The pathological features of the nerve biopsy were compatible with sensory perineuritis. A biopsy from his skin lesion revealed Bowen's disease. There have been several reported cases of sensory perineuritis accompanied by malignant tumors. In these cases, immune dysfunctions were considered a common underlying cause in both diseases. This is the first reported case of sensory perineuritis associated with Bowen's disease. |
