Zusammenfassung
Gegen den Tumornekrosefaktor (TNF) α gerichtete Therapeutika werden zunehmend erfolgreich in der Therapie der Psoriasis vulgaris und Psoriasisarthritis eingesetzt. Wir berichten über einen Patienten mit TNF-Rezeptor-1-assoziiertem periodischem Syndrom (TRAPS), bei dem eine Therapie mit dem TNF-α-Antagonisten Etanercept initiiert wurde. Einen Monat später stellte sich der Patient mit der Erstmanifestation einer Psoriasis vulgaris vom Plaquetyp vor. Dieses als paradox erscheinende Phänomen wurde bereits in Einzelfällen als Folge der Anti-TNF-α-Therapie anderer inflammatorischer Erkrankungen beobachtet. Die Ursache der TNF-α-Antagonisten-induzierten Psoriasis ist bisher unklar.
Abstract
Drugs antagonizing tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α have been increasingly and successfully used in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris and psoriatic arthritis. We report a patient with TNF receptor 1-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) who received TNF-α antagonist etanercept. A month later, the patient developed for the first time generalized psoriasis vulgaris. This paradoxical phenomenon has been reported sporadically in patients receiving TNF-α antagonists for other inflammatory diseases. The cause of psoriasis induced by TNF-α antagonists is still obscure.
