We describe a patient with all the features of the CREST syndrome variant of scleroderma who developed a destructive arthropathy typical of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A pulmonary rheumatoid nodule was found confirming the presence of RA. The rarity of the coexistence of these two diseases in the same patient suggests that, despite commonly found overlapping features, these illnesses are distinct entities.
我们描述了一名患有硬皮病CREST综合征变体所有特征的患者,该患者出现了典型类风湿关节炎(RA)的破坏性关节病。发现了一个肺部类风湿结节,证实了RA的存在。这两种疾病在同一患者中共存的罕见性表明,尽管通常会发现重叠特征,但这些疾病是不同的实体。
