AI Article Synopsis
- Reactive angioendotheliomatosis (RAE) is a rare, non-cancerous skin condition that involves the abnormal growth of blood vessels and endothelial cells in the skin, often linked to other health issues like infections or lymphoproliferative disorders.
- This report highlights a unique case of RAE in a 46-year-old man who has ulcerative colitis (UC), a type of inflammatory bowel disease.
- Histopathological analysis and immunostaining confirmed the diagnosis of RAE in this patient, marking it as the first known association of RAE with ulcerative colitis.
Article Abstract
Reactive angioendotheliomatosis (RAE) is a rare benign skin condition characterized histologically by the proliferation of dermal vessels and endothelial cells that occurs secondary to an underlying disease such as infections or lymphoproliferative disorders. To our knowledge, no previous cases of RAE associated with ulcerative colitis (UC) were reported in the literature. Therefore, we report the case of a 46-year-old man with a history of UC presenting with RAE confirmed on histopathology and immunostaining.
