  • Title: [Acrosclerosis, Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome, myxedema and anti-centromere antibodies. 3 cases of this association].
    Author: Balafrej M, Kahn MF, Vigneron AM, Bourgeois P.
    Journal: Ann Med Interne (Paris); 1987; 138(3):185-8. PubMed ID: 3497597.
    Abstract:
    The authors report three identical cases of the association of acrosclerosis with telangiectasis without calcinosis, Sjögren-Gougerot syndrome, myxoedema with antithyroid antibodies and anti-centromere antibodies. The association of these conditions one with another has already been published, but, to the authors' best knowledge, this is the first report of all of them grouped together in the same patients. With reference to the literature, the authors discuss the problems of individualization of the CRST syndrome and its varieties and the clinical significance of the presence of anti-centromere antibodies.
