Xantoma disseminado é uma doença não familiar rara, caracterizada por proliferação de células histiocíticas em que a deposição lipídica é um evento secundário. A doença afeta predominantemente crianças e adultos jovens do sexo masculino, com envolvimento de pele, mucosas oculares e do trato respiratório superior, meninges e raramente outros órgãos, incluindo fígado, baço e medula óssea. As lesões cutâneas do xantoma disseminado são pápulas e nódulos eritematosos, amarelo-acastanhados que estão distribuídos simetricamente em tronco, face e extremidades proximais. As lesões podem tornar-se confluentes, principalmente nas flexuras, formando placas xantomatosas. A doença pode persistir por muitos anos. | |||

Xanthoma disseminatum is a rare non-familial disease, characterised by proliferation of histiocytic cells in which lipid deposition is a secondary event. The disease predominantly affects male children and young adults, with involvement of the skin, mucous membranes of eyes and upper respiratory tract, the meninges and rarely other organs including liver, spleen and bone marrow. The skin lesions of xanthoma disseminatum are erythematous, yellow-brown papules and nodules, which are symmetrically distributed on the trunk, face and proximal extremities. The lesions may become confluent, especially in flexures, to form xanthomatous plaques. The disease may persist for many years. | |||
