초록

ECD는 포말 대식세포의 전신 침범으로 염증 반응을 일으키는 드문 질환으로 다양한 임상양상과 불량한 예후를 보이는 질환이다. 본 증례는 골 동통과 폐막 침범이 된 자에서 흉막 생검을 통한 확진으로 ECD가 진단된 경우이며 기저질환으로 진성 적혈구 증다증이 있는 자에서 발현한 예를 경험하였기에 이를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare disease that is characterized by multi-organ involvement of foamy histiocytes. It causes systemic inflammation, and also demonstrates various clinical manifestations and has a poor prognosis. We encountered a case of ECD in a patient that had been treated for underlying polycythemia vera. As far as we know, this is the first reported case worldwide where ECD developed in association with polycythemia vera. A 59-year-old man visited our hospital due to pleuric pain at the right side of the chest. Pleural tissue that was obtained following a thoracoscopic biopsy showed non-Langerhan's cell histiocytosis, suggesting the presence of ECD. The histiocytes stained positively for CD68, but were negative for S-100 and CD1a. The patient also complained of pain at both hips and the right shoulder area. An X-ray and magnetic resonance image demonstrated that the lesion showed sclerosis and osteolysis in both the proximal femur and right humerus. Treatment was started with predinisolone, and subsequently cyclophosphamide was added. ECD is a very rare multi-systemic disease, and its cause and therapeutic options have not yet been defined. ECD has a poor prognosis. Therefore, we believe that additional case studies are needed prior to the determination of a novel therapy for ECD.
