Zusammenfassung
Odynophagie und Dysphagie sind Symptome mit breitem
differenzialdiagnostischen Spektrum. Wir stellen den Fall einer
84-jährigen Patientin vor, die seit über 10 Jahren unter
Schluckschmerzen und Schluckstörungen leidet. Bei der oberen
Intestinoskopie sah man im proximalen Ösophagus blasige
Schleimhautläsionen und eine Entzündung des oberen und mittleren
Ösophagus. Immunhistologisch konnte die Diagnose eines Pemphigus vulgaris
des Ösophagus gesichert werden. Typische orale Läsionen fehlten und
das Integument war vollständig intakt. Eine Mitbeteiligung des
Ösophagus im Rahmen eines Pemphigus vulgaris ist beschrieben, wird jedoch
selten diagnostisch erfasst. Der alleinige Befall des Ösophagus, wie bei
unserer Patientin, ohne oropharyngeale oder Integumentbeteiligung ist jedoch
sehr selten.
Abstract
Odynophagia and dysphagia are clinical signs associated with a wide
spectrum of potential causes. Our patient was an 84-year-old woman, who
suffered from odynophagia and dysphagia for over 10 years. The interstinoscopy
showed blister-like lesions and signs of inflammation only in the proximal part
of the oesophagus. The diagnosis of pemphigus vulgaris was supported by
immunohistological results. Typical oropharyngeal and cutaneous lesions of
pemphigus were missing in our patient. Involvement of the oesophagus is
described in literature, but it seems to be underdiagnosed in clinical
everyday’s work. Restriction of the lesions to the oesophagus without
oropharyngeal and cutaneous manifestation - as we have seen in our
patient - is rare.
