Multiple eruptive dermatofibromas associated with pregnancy- a case and literature review.
Dermatology Online Journal 2019 May 16
Dermatofibromas are common and asymptomatic benign histiocytic tumors. The occurrence in a small number (up to 5 lesions) is frequent. However, the expression "multiple eruptive dermatofibromas" is reserved for the appearance of more than 5 lesions in less than four months. Multiple eruptive dermatofibromas are rare and usually associated with an underlying systemic condition, the most common being autoimmune diseases or HIV infection. Herein we report multiple eruptive dermatofibromas developing in an otherwise healthy pregnant woman. Although the pathogenesis of this condition remains unknown, it is believed to be related to immunological alterations, given the strong association with states of immunosuppression or, in the case of pregnancy, with a state of immunotolerance.
