Systemic Scleroderma with Linear Scleroderma.
Nishi Nihon Hifuka, 200253歳の女性にみられた線状強皮症を伴った全身性強皮症の1例を報告した。1975年頃より間質性肺炎と手指の硬化があり,当院呼吸器科で全身性強皮症としてプレドニンの内服治療を受けていた。数年前より手指の硬化が著明になると共に前胸部に皮下硬結を自覚。数ヵ月前より皮下硬結の延長が認められたため当科を受診した。初診時,前胸部に淡紅色の線状を呈する皮下硬結が認められた。血液検査所見では,抗核抗体が320倍と陽性,KL-6も643 U/mlと上昇していた。胸部X線·CT像では,間質性肺炎が認められた。前胸部の皮下硬結よりの皮膚生検で真皮の膠原線維の増生と真皮血管周囲の軽度リンパ球浸潤がみられた。以上の所見より,線状強皮症を伴った全身性強皮症と診断した ...

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2001
Systemic scleroderma in children is very rare and is considered similar to adult-onset disease. In adults, new etiopathogenetic and therapeutic approaches have emerged in recent years. For instance, it has been shown that microchimerism could play a role in disease pathogenesis and that immunoablation followed by stem cell rescue could be of potential ...

Systemic scleroderma is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting the skin, internal organs and the musculoskeletal system. The presence of Raynaud phenomenon, anti-nuclear antibodies and pathologic capillaroscopy are early signs of the disease. Limited cutaneous SSc, diffuse cutaneous SSc and SSc-overlap syndromes are the main clinical subtypes ...
