Abstract:
Palmar fasciitis and polyarthritis syndrome (PFPAS) is an exceedingly rare rheumatologic condition characterized by fibrotic changes in the palmar fascia with joint pains. It is known to be associated with gynecological malignancy, especially ovarian adenocarcinoma, gastric cancer, pancreatic, prostate, breast, and lung cancer. We present a unique case of a 75-year-old Caucasian female with PFPAS preceding the diagnosis of ovarian cancer by eight months. Our case highlights the importance of considering PFPAS as a potential paraneoplastic syndrome. It underscores the need for increased awareness and further studies to enhance the early detection of underlying malignancies in patients presenting with similar nonspecific hand symptoms.
摘要:
掌筋膜炎和多关节炎综合征(PFPAS)是一种极为罕见的风湿病,其特征是掌筋膜纤维化改变并伴有关节疼痛。已知与妇科恶性肿瘤有关,尤其是卵巢腺癌,胃癌,胰腺,前列腺,乳房,还有肺癌.我们介绍了一个独特的病例,该病例是一名75岁的白人女性,在八个月前诊断为卵巢癌。我们的病例强调了将PFPAS视为潜在副肿瘤综合征的重要性。它强调了需要提高认识和进一步研究,以增强对表现出类似非特异性手部症状的患者的潜在恶性肿瘤的早期发现。
