Background

Episodic angioedema with eosinophilia (EAE) (Gleich syndrome) is a rare disorder consisting of recurrent episodes of angioedema, hypereosinophilia, and frequent elevated serum IgM level.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective multicenter nationwide study regarding the clinical spectrum and therapeutic management of patients with EAE in France.

Results

A total of 30 patients with a median age at diagnosis of 41 years (range, 5-84) were included. The median duration of each crisis was 5.5 days (range, 1-90), with swelling affecting mainly the face and the upper limbs. Total serum IgM levels were increased in 20 patients (67%). Abnormal T-cell immunophenotypes were detected in 12 patients (40%), of whom 5 (17%) showed evidence of clonal T-cell receptor gamma locus gene (TRG) rearrangement. The median duration of follow-up was 53 months (range, 31-99). The presence of an abnormal T-cell population was the sole factor associated with a shorter time to flare (hazard ratio, 4.15; 95% confidence interval, 1.18-14.66; P = .02). At last follow-up, 3 patients (10%) were able to have all treatments withdrawn and 11 (37%) were in clinical and biologic remission with less than 10 mg of prednisone daily.

Conclusion

EAE is a heterogeneous condition that encompasses several disease forms. Although patients usually respond well to glucocorticoids, those with evidence of abnormal T-cell phenotype have a shorter time to flare.

发作性血管性水肿伴嗜酸性粒细胞增多症(Gleich 综合征)的异常 T 细胞表型:频率、临床意义和预后

背景

发作性血管性水肿伴嗜酸性粒细胞增多症 (EAE)(Gleich 综合征)是一种罕见的疾病,由反复发作的血管性水肿、嗜酸性粒细胞增多症和频繁升高的血清 IgM 水平组成。

方法

我们对法国 EAE 患者的临床谱和治疗管理进行了一项回顾性多中心全国性研究。

结果

总共包括 30 名诊断时中位年龄为 41 岁(范围 5-84 岁)的患者。每次危象的中位持续时间为 5.5 天(范围 1-90 天),肿胀主要影响面部和上肢。20 名患者 (67%) 的总血清 IgM 水平升高。在 12 名患者 (40%) 中检测到异常的 T 细胞免疫表型,其中 5 名 (17%) 显示克隆性 T 细胞受体伽马位点基因 (TRG )重排的证据。中位随访时间为 53 个月(范围 31-99)。异常 T 细胞群的存在是与较短发作时间相关的唯一因素(风险比,4.15;95% 置信区间,1.18-14.66;P =.02)。在最后一次随访时,3 名患者 (10%) 能够撤消所有治疗,11 名 (37%) 患者在临床和生物学缓解中每天使用少于 10 mg 的泼尼松。

结论

EAE 是一种包含多种疾病形式的异质性疾病。尽管患者通常对糖皮质激素反应良好,但那些有异常 T 细胞表型证据的患者出现发作的时间较短。
