- W2604452242 abstract "Pachymeningitis is an uncommon disease with multiple etiologies with fibrosis of leptomeninges. One type of this disease is related to immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4). The most frequent manifestations include chronic cephalgia and focal neurological deficits. The case of a 31-year-old man with chronic cephalgia localized to the left hemicranium and left dysmetria is presented. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging showed image hyperintensity and perilesional edema located at the infratentorial and left parietal occipital levels. The results of cerebral angiography and a cerebrospinal fluid examination were normal. A biopsy of the central nervous system (CNS) ruled out neoplastic lesions, granulomatous lesions, infection, and arteriovenous malformation and indicated thickened meningeal fragments. Elevated serum IgG4 levels were found. The antinuclear antibodies (ANAs), antibodies to extractable nuclear antigens (ENAs), anti-native DNA antibodies (anti-DNA), topoisomerase I antibodies (Scl-70), antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP), and rheumatoid factor (RF) were negative. After an initial diagnosis of idiopathic hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis, the patient received treatment with high doses of glucocorticosteroids for two years, without response, and developed Cushing's syndrome, cataracts, and osteoporosis. During the follow-up, dactylitis, distal upper limb sclerosis, and Raynaud's phenomenon occurred. A capillaroscopy indicated capillaries with dilated loops, microhemorrhaging, disorganization of the capillary architecture, and megacapillaries, which led to a diagnosis of limited systemic scleroderma. Although an association between scleroderma and pachymeningitis was originally proposed, review of the literature suggests that these are two different entities. Treatment with methotrexate, 25 mg weekly, allowed the withdrawal of glucocorticoids and resolution of neurological symptoms. La paquimeningitis es el compromiso fibrosante de las leptomeninges poco común y de múltiple etiología. Una de ellas, la enfermedad relacionada a inmunoglobulina IgG4. Las manifestaciones clínicas más frecuentes son la cefalea crónica de difícil tratamiento y el déficit neurológico focal. Se presenta el caso de un hombre de 31 años, con cefalea crónica localizada en el hemicráneo izquierdo y dismetría izquierda, resonancia nuclear magnética con imagen hiperintensa y edema perilesional ubicada a nivel infratentorial y parieto-occipital izquierda, angiografía cerebral y estudio de líquido cefalorraquídeo normales. La biopsia del sistema nervioso central (SNC) descartó lesiones neoplásicas, granulomatosas, infección y malformación arteriovenosa, y reportó fragmentos meníngeos engrosados. A nivel sérico se encontraron altos niéveles de IgG4. ANA, ENA, anti-DNA, SCL-70, CCp y FR, negativos. Con el diagnóstico presuntivo inicial de paquimeningitis craneal hipertrófica idiopática, recibió tratamiento con dosis elevadas de glucocorticoides por espacio de 2 años, sin buena respuesta y el desarrollo de síndrome de Cushing iatrogénico, cataratas y osteoporosis. Durante el seguimiento se documentó dactilitis, esclerosis distal de miembros superiores, síndrome de Raynaud y con capilaroscopia con asas dilatadas, microhemorragia, desorganización de la arquitectura capilar y megacapilares, configurándose el diagnóstico de esclerodermia sistémica limitada. Aunque se propuso inicialmente la asociación entre estas 2 condiciones, la revisión de la literatura indica que se trata de 2 entidades fisiopatológicamente diferentes. El tratamiento con metotrexato a dosis de 25 mg semanal permitió el retiro de los glucocorticoides y la resolución completa de los síntomas neurológicos." @default.
