  • Title: Pure red cell aplasia in mixed connective tissue disease.
    Author: Julkunen H, Jäntti J, Pettersson T.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1989 Oct; 16(10):1385-6. PubMed ID: 2509697.
    Abstract:
    We describe a patient with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), who developed pure red cell aplasia which responded favorably during treatment with corticosteroids. Pure red cell aplasia has been described in a few patients with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, but, to our knowledge, this is the first report of an association between it and MCTD.
