Periorbital Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma and stage I multiple myeloma
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1991Co-Authors: Harold Plotnick, Yoshiki Taniguchi, Ken Hashimoto, William G. Negendank, Liborio TranchidaAbstract:We observed a 40-year-old woman with Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma from the inception of indurated eyelid and periorbital infiltrates and concurrent stage I multiple myeloma to resolution of infiltrates in skin and bone marrow after pulsed high-dose oral dexamethasone therapy. Ultrastructural studies revealed lipid vacuoles in epidermal keratinocytes, in dermal histiocytic macrophages, and in vascular and lymphatic endothelial cells. The presence of lipid vacuoles in epidermal keratinocytes has not been reported previously in Xanthogranuloma.

Cutaneous Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma (NXG) - successfully treated with low dose chlorambucil
European journal of dermatology : EJD, 2001Co-Authors: Susana Machado, Rosário Alves, Margarida Lima, Irene Leal, A MassaAbstract:We report a case of Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma in a 51 year-old white male patient presenting with a 6-year history of multiple indurated violaceous nodules and plaques involving the eyelids, trunk and extremities. He had an associated paraproteinemia (Ig G lambda), elevated sedimentation rate, cryoglobulinemia and hypocomplementemia. No extracutaneous involvement was detected. He was successfully treated with chlorambucil (2 mg/d for 7 months), leading to disappearance of all skin lesions.

18F-FDG PET/CT and MRI of Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma.
Clinical nuclear medicine, 2014Co-Authors: Ba D. NguyenAbstract:Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma is a non-Langerhans histiocytic disorder characterized by chronic and progressively enlarging cutaneous plaques and nodules predominantly at the head and facial regions. These lesions exhibit increased F-FDG uptake because of their inflammatory and granulomatous nature. The author presents the F-FDG PET/CT and MRI features of such an uncommon disease in a patient with associated monoclonal gammopathy.
