No formal recommendation for management with therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) has been published due to rarity. This paper reports a 42\u2010year\u2010old male with progressive scleromyxedema. The patient was treated with glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy, but the disease progressed. Ultimately, the patient was referred for TPE, which resulted in decreased skin stiffness, improved extremity range of motion, and decreased visibility of papules on the hands. The patient's debilitating dysphagia gradually improved. A review of the literature focusing on clinical response identified five cases of scleromyxedema patients treated with TPE. Three of the five cases reported significant improvement in cutaneous symptoms and range of motion for at least 12\u2009months. Overall, we propose that TPE should be considered an effective supportive treatment for symptomatic relief in severe or refractory scleromyxedema.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jca.22153","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,12]],"date-time":"2024-11-12T05:19:06Z","timestamp":1731388746000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Therapeutic Plasma Exchange for the Symptomatic Treatment of Scleromyxedema: A Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Matthew H.","family":"Lanehart","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"},{"name":"West Virginia University School of Medicine  Morgantown West Virginia USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Erika S.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole A.","family":"Aqui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0190-9622(95)90007-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0300060515593259"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ijd.14888"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00415\u2010019\u201009379\u2010w"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcp\/69.4.446"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3083.1998.tb00956.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0190\u20109622(08)81176\u20100"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5114\/pdia.2013.34165"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","first-page":"89","article-title":"Scleromyxedema: Successful Treatment of Cutaneous and Neurologic Symptoms","volume":"65","author":"Nieves D.
