  • Title: Cutaneous manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis.
    Author: Soderstrom CW.
    Journal: Cutis; 1979 Nov; 24(5):553-62. PubMed ID: 520034.
    Abstract:
    Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic illness defined and classified according to strict criteria of the American Rheumatism Association. Cutaneous disease may complicate RA or the drugs used in its treatment. Cutaneous vasculitis is potentially a prognostic factor in patients with RA. Controversy exists regarding the role of corticosteroids in the development of rheumatoid vasculitis. Two illustrative cases of RA with cutaneous complications are presented and the joint and cutaneous manifestations are reviewed herein.
