  • Title: Colitis and pericarditis in a patient with eosinophilic fasciitis. A contribution to the multisystem nature of eosinophilic fasciitis.
    Author: Naschitz JE, Yeshurun D, Miselevich I, Boss JH.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1989 May; 16(5):688-92. PubMed ID: 2502625.
    Abstract:
    A case of eosinophilic fasciitis (EF), associated with monoclonal gammopathy, thyroglobulin antibodies, pericarditis and colitis, is described. The occurrence of EF in the framework of a multisystem disease is the outstanding feature, contrasting with the absence of visceral involvement or solitary organ involvement in the large majority of cases. The unusual histologic features of the colitis and beneficial effect of cimetidine on EF are discussed.
