Abstract:
Intralesional steroid injections avoid potential side effects associated with systemic administration, such as hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression, endocrine changes, allergic reactions, syncope, and blindness, but do not spare local side effects, such as pain, hemorrhage, ulceration, atrophy, hypopigmentation, calcification, secondary infection, granuloma formation, and allergic reaction. Linear leukoderma following intralesional steroid is a rare but known complication. Here, we report a case of a 23-year-old female presented with cutaneous linear depigmentation along the volar aspect of her left forearm developed three months following a single episode of injection triamcinolone acetonide for ganglion cyst.
摘要:
病灶内注射类固醇可避免与全身给药相关的潜在副作用,如下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺轴抑制,内分泌变化,过敏反应,晕厥,和失明,但不要避免局部副作用,如疼痛,出血,溃疡,萎缩,色素沉着减退,钙化,继发感染,肉芽肿形成,和过敏反应。病灶内类固醇后的线性白斑病是一种罕见但已知的并发症。这里,我们报道了一例23岁女性患者,在一次注射曲安奈德治疗神经节囊肿3个月后,出现了沿左前臂掌侧的皮肤线性脱色。
