Achenbach syndrome is a condition of unknown etiology, characterized by changes in the coloration of the skin of the fingers and associated with acute pain. There are few epidemiological data, but it is estimated that it is a rare condition, which exceptionally appears under 40 years of age. We present the case of a young woman who has been diagnosed with Achenbach syndrome thanks to her history and after ruling out rheumatic, vascular, and metabolic pathology. We finalize by discussing data on the pathology and the differences found with the case we describe here.

Acute Coronary Syndrome II: Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations

The pathophysiology of Acute Coronary Syndrome [ACD] involves several key processes:The main underlying cause of ACD is atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the buildup of lipid-laden plaques within the coronary arteries.As the atherosclerotic plaque grows in the coronary artery, it may become unstable due to the formation of a lipid-rich core and a thin fibrous cap. Inflammatory cells within the plaque, such as macrophages, secrete enzymes that degrade the...
