Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report two cases of Schnitzler's syndrome in which anti-interleukin-1alpha autoantibodies and functional autoantibodies against the high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRIalpha) or against IgE were absent. One patient responded well to TL-01 phototherapy, a treatment which may be considered in patients with Schnitzler's syndrome if, as is usually the case, they are unresponsive to antihistamine therapy. |
