It is characterized by the formation of scar tissue (fibrosis) in the skin and organs of the body, leading to thickness and firmness of involved areas. Also referred to as systemic sclerosis, the cause is unknown. The diagnosis of the scleroderma is based on the findings of the clinical features of the illnesses through blood tests which suggest autoimmunity. Treatment is then directed toward those individual features that are most troubling to the patient.

SCLERODERMA F.A.Q. Revised April 22, 1998 (Minor Revision: July 25, 2002 Please address all comments and suggestions to: Ed Harris eharris@synnovation.com General Description Scleroderma (means "hard skin") is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by abnormal thickening of the skin. It is generally considered to be an autoimmune disorder. There are two major variants of the disease, as well as other less common forms. The more serious form is usually called "diffuse Scleroderma " and is characterized by rapid development of skin thickening beginning with the hands, and face and extending to the arms and trunk. People with diffuse Scleroderma are at greater risk for developing internal organ involvement early in the course of the disease. The other major form is often called limited Scleroderma or CREST Syndrome. The name CREST is an acronym for its characteristic symptoms: calcinosis Raynaud's phenomenon, esophageal involvement, sclerodactyly , and telangiectasia (these terms are discussed below). This form progresses more slowly and has a better prognosis.

Sometimes doctors use the word scleroderma when they are referring to localized lesions of morphea (see below). This isn’t pretty to look at, but it is rarely serious. Other times a child has linear scleroderma with an area of tight skin on an arm or leg. Again, this isn’t pretty, but it isn’t life threatening. Other children have progressive systemic sclerosis or CREST syndrome.

Feedback Introduction: Scleroderma Scleroderma: Autoimmune disease of skin or blood vessels. Scleroderma: Derived from the Greek words "sklerosis," meaning hardness, and "derma," meaning skin, scleroderma literally means hard skin. Though it is often referred to as if it were a single disease, scleroderma is really a symptom of a group of diseases that involve the abnormal growth of connective tissue, which supports the skin and internal organs. It is sometimes used, therefore, as an umbrella term for these disorders. In some forms of scleroderma, hard, tight skin is the extent of this abnormal process. In other forms, however, the problem goes much deeper, affecting blood vessels and internal organs, such as the heart, lungs, and kidneys. Scleroderma is called both a rheumatic (roo-MA-tik) disease and a connective tissue disease. The term rheumatic disease refers to a group of conditions characterized by inflammation and/or pain in the muscles, joints, or fibrous tissue. A connective tissue disease is one that affects the major substances in the skin, tendons, and bones.
