Abstract: | Eosinophilic fasciitis is a disorder characterised by induration of the skin due to chronic inflammation and fibrosis of the subcutaneous septa and muscular fascia. It is different from sclerodermia. This is a clinical entity that presents as swelling, tenderness and stiffness of the extremities associated with peripheral eosinophilia. We described a patient with this disorder with 18 month of evolution who had a bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. Her disease appeared after steroid treatment. A review of medical literature demonstrated that similar clinical pictures are originated by different causes. Some authors propose to encompass this group of disorder under the designation of "fasciitis-panniculitis syndrome" instead of "eosinophilic fasciitis" although the well-known eosinophilic fasciitis is clearly recognized and demonstrated. |
