Extractions: Home Medical Reference Patient Education The name scleroderma is appropriately derived from the Greek word skleros , which means hard, and derma , which means skin. The disease is categorized as a rheumatologic disorder because it affects the connective tissues in the body. Scleroderma is a rare disease marked by the following: Damage to the cells lining the walls of small arteries. An abnormal build-up of tough scar-like fibrous tissue in the skin. Patients with scleroderma may develop either a localized or a systemic (widespread) form of the disease. Localized scleroderma usually affects only the skin on the hands and face. Its course is very slow and it rarely, if ever, becomes systemic see below ] or causes severe complications. There are two primary forms of localized scleroderma: morphea and linear scleroderma.

http://arthritiscentral.com/html/faqscler.htm

Extractions: Frequently Asked Questions Scleroderma Q. What is scleroderma? A. Scleroderma literally means hard skin. It is a multisystemic disorder not simply limited to the skin and may also involve the heart, lungs and kidneys. It is often associated with Raynaud's Phenomenon which is a color change in the extremities often secondary to exposure to cold, trauma or stress. Diffuse cutaneous forms of disease are referred to as systemic sclerosis. Limited cutaneous forms, overlapping syndromes, and localized forms are referred to as linear sclerosis or morphea. The limited cutaneous forms are also referred to as CREST syndrome and have a strong association with certain antibodies, such as the anticentromere antibody and overall has a better prognosis (see next question). Q. What is CREST syndrome? A. CREST syndrome is a limited form of scleroderma and literally CREST stands for Calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, Esophageal dysmotility (often given rise to heartburn symptoms and lower esophagitis), Sclerodactyly which refers to the sclerodermatous changes of the fingers, and Telangiectasias which are dilated venules, capillaries and arterioles involving the hands, face, lips or mouth. It is often associated with an anticentromere antibody and has a relatively good prognosis, but needs to be followed carefully for the development of pulmonary hypertension or pulmonary fibrosis. Patients with CREST syndrome can also have progressive Raynaud's Phenomenon even leading to auto?amputation of the digits. Another feature that is sometimes associated with CREST syndrome is the presence of biliary cirrhosis.
