Reversed shunting in CREST syndrome
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 2015ABSTRACTThe patent foramen ovale (PFO) is one of the most common congenital defects and may as well stand for “potential for opening” in addition to patent foramen ovale.

A variant of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), CREST syndrome affects a relatively small number of patients. CREST (also called limited cutaneous scleroderma) has a more favorable prognosis than the diffuse form of scleroderma. However, as with most of the connective tissue diseases, the daily issues faced by patients are frequently difficult to manage

CIRCULATING ANTICOAGULANT IN CREST SYNDROME
Rheumatology, 1984We report the discovery of a circulating anticoagulant in a patient suffering from CREST syndrome. The patient was first seen with a microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia which led to the diagnosis of the CREST syndrome. Several months later, prior to a cataract operation, a routine coagulation screen (prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time ...

The familial occurrence of scleroderma is uncommon particularly the limited (CREST) form. We describe 2 families in which such an association occurred. Family pedigree 1 consists of 2 of 3 sisters with CREST scleroderma. Both affected sisters shared HLA types and C4 allotypes including DR5, found more frequently in patients with scleroderma.

CREST Syndrome: A Benign Entity?
Archives of Dermatology, 1984To the Editor.— In the July 1983Archives, Tuffanelli et al 1 made the potentially erroneous statement that the CREST (calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, esophageal involvement, sclerodactyly, and telangiectasia) syndrome is a "benign, chronic" form of scleroderma. In the past, the CREST syndrome variant has been thought to represent a more benign form

If a patient has peri- and intra-articular calcinosis, as well as acro-osteolysis and esophageal hypomotility, and rheumatic symptoms, Crest syndrome should be considered as a manifestation of progressive systemic sclerosis. In connection with relevant symptoms on the skin and visceral involvement, radiological studies offer the possibility of ...
