Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Imatinib mesylate (Gleevec) is a selective Bcr-Abl protein tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, and it also inhibits the receptor tyrosine kinases for stem cell factor (c-kit) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGFR). It is being investigated for use in the treatment of sclerosing dermatoses.
OBSERVATION: A 44-year-old woman with a history of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) was referred for the evaluation of a pruritic eruption that developed over 6 months. Examination revealed atrophic plaques confined to the groin, vulva, axillae, inframammary region, trunk, antecubital and popliteal fossae, and posterior thighs bilaterally. A biopsy showed lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSetA). At the time of presentation, the patient was receiving imatinib mesylate 400 mg daily for CML.
CONCLUSION: This is the first report of development of LSetA, a sclerosing dermatosis, while receiving a therapeutic dose of imatinib mesylate, a drug thought to have anti-sclerotic properties.
