Paciente con enfermedad de Erdheim Chester diagnosticado a partir de lesión en sistema nervioso central

Abstract

La enfermedad de Erdheim Chester es una afección sistémica poco frecuente considerada en la actualidad de naturaleza neoplásica debido a la proliferación monoclonal de histiocitos. Se presenta el caso de un hombre de 31 años con historia de cefalea y tomografía computada de cerebro con lesión ocupante de espacio en región fronto-parieto-temporal derecha por lo que se realizó biopsia excisional. Los hallazgos fueron compatibles con proceso histiocitario en relación con desorden xantogranulomatoso/histiocitosis no Langerhans/enfermedad de Erdheim Chester (ECD). Se solicitó PET-TC evidenciando en topografía de retroperitoneo izquierdo una voluminosa lesión hipermetabólica con densidad de partes blandas, heterogénea y bordes lobulados. El PET CT con F18 FDG tiene un papel fundamental al diagnóstico, ya que ayuda a determinar la extensión de la enfermedad, identificar posibles sitios de biopsia, y también es de utilidad para evaluar la respuesta al tratamiento.
