Collagen Vascular Diseases
 The four most common disorders of this group are
rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus
erythematosus, scleroderma, and polymyositis.
 The etiology of the collagen vascular diseases is
unknown, however the immune system has been
implicated.
 All of these diseases effect the joints, each has
systemic effects as well.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Pathophysiology
 Rheumatoid arthritis begins with cellular
hyperplasia of the synovium, followed by
invasion of the synovium by lymphocytes,
plasma cells, and fibroblasts. Ultimately, the
cartilage and articular surfaces are destroyed.
 The cause of Rheuatoid Arthritis is unknown,
but rheumatoid factor (an antiimmunoglobulin
antibody) is present in 90% of patients
 The hands and wrist are the first to be effected,
especially the metacarpophalangeal and
proximal interphalangeal joints.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Compression of lower extremity peripheral nerves can
produce paresis and sensory loss over the leg.
 Spinal cord compression does not correlate with
patient’s symptoms, and asymptomatic patients may
have a high degree of cord compression.
 Rheumatoid arthritis affects the joints of the larynx,
cervical spine, and temporomandibular joint.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Peripheral Joints
 Hands, feet, wrist (most common)
 Nonarticular muscular structures
 Tendons, ligaments and fascia
 Systemic Involvement
 Blood Vessels, heart, lungs, etc.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Manifestations involving other systems:
 Skin : Raynaud’s, Digital necrosis
 Eyes : Scleritis, corneal ulceration
 Lung : Pleural effusion, pulmonary effusion
 Heart : Pericarditis, cardiac tamponade,
coronary arteritis, aortic insufficiency
 Kidney : Interstitial fibrosis,
glomerulonephritis, amyloid deposition
 PNS : Compression syndromes,
mononeuritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Manifestations continued:
 Liver : Hepatitis
 Blood: Anemia, leukopenia
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 About 6 million American have Rheumatoid Arthritis
 75% of them are women
 Can occur at any age
 Women: between ages 35-50
 Men: somewhat later

Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Treatment:
 Analgesics, NSAIDS,Methotrexate, COX-2
inhibitors, and corticosteroids.
 Many of these dugs cause anemia,
thrombocytopenia, and hepatitis.
 Steroids are reserved for those patients who
fail to respond to first line drugs such as
Methotrexate due to the long term effects of
taking steroids.
 Surgical procedures such as synovectomy,
tenolysis, and joint replacement.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Management of anesthesia:
 Baseline ABGs, PFTs, clotting times,
CBC, ECHO/Stress Test
 Assess cervical spine ROM and airway
 Assess steroid use
 Possible awake FOI, glidescope
 Proper positioning
 Careful airway management/ventilation
Rheumatoid Arthritis
 Management of anesthesia:
 Intubation: cricoarytenois arthritis may
be recognized by erythema and edema of
vocal cords which may decrease glottic
opening. A smaller ETT may be needed.
Exaggerated edema and stridor may
occur postextubation.
 Corticosteroids may be needed
perioperatively.
 Careful positioning.
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
 An autoimmune disease in which patients produce
autoantibodies to DNA and also to RNA
polymerase, cardiolipin, and ribosomal
phosphoproteins.
 Clinical manifestations may be due to the
production of and autoantibody highly specific for
a single protein within an organ.
 Common manifestations are polyarthritis and
dermatitis.
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
 A diagnosis of SLE is
likely when patients have
three of four
manifestations

renal function, liver function, and PFT’s.
 Airway Assessment
 Proper Positions/Peripheral Neuropathy
 Careful muscle relaxation titration
 Arthritic involvement is rare in the cervical spine.
 If postextubation laryngeal edema or stridor occur IV
administration of corticosteroids is effective.
 Patients receiving corticosteroids may require
intraoperative steroids.
Scleroderma
 A chronic autoimmune disease of the connective tissue
 Characterized by the formation of scar tissue (fibrosis) in
the skin and organs of the body and presence of
autoantibodies
 The cause of Scleroderma is unknown, but the disease
process has the characteristics of both a collagen disease
and an autoimmune process
 Progressive fibrosis, resulting form increases collagen
deposits in the interstitium and intima of small arteries and
connective tissue of involved organs is the pathologic hall
mark of the disease
Scleroderma
 Affects approximately 300,000 people in the US
 Affects women 4 times more likely than men

prevalence

prognosis

 Limited form of Scleroderma tends to be confined to the skin,
fingers and face
 Often referred to as “CREST” Syndrome

response to cold or stress
 E – Esophagus Dysfunction – Acid reflux and decreased motility
of the esophagus

the taut skin and joint changes
Scleroderma
 Management of Anesthesia:

 Invasive cardiac monitoring due to
exaggerated responses to inhaled
anesthetics.
 Difficult venous access.

to muscle relaxants (use short acting).

tissue disorder

thin fingers, a typically tall stature and a predisposition
to cardiovascular abnormalities

 Approximately 200,000 people in the US
 Each parent with the condition has a 50% chance of
passing onto offspring
 Men and women are equally likely to have disease

Epidermolysis Bullosa
 A rare skin disease which can be inherited or
acquired. The acquired forms are autoimmune.
 The end result is loss or absence of normal
intercellular bridges and separation of skin layers.
The separation of skin layers results in intradermal
fluid accumulation and bullae formation.
 Minor skin trauma produces skin blisters.
Epidermolysis Bullosa
 Involves fingers and toes mostly.
 Esophageal involvement is common, resulting in
dysphasia and esophageal strictures
 Anemia and hypoalbuminemia lead to increased
infection.
 Glomerulonephritis secondary to strep infection.
 Patients rarely survive over 30 years.
Epidermolysis Bullosa
 Therapy is rather unsuccessful and steroids
tend not to work.
 Management of Anesthesia:
 Avoid trauma to the skin and mucous membranes
 Trauma from tape, BP cuffs, tourniquets, and EKG pads
can cause bullae.
 Pad BP cuffs
 Lubrication of face mask
 Avoid upper airways.
Epidermolysis Bullosa
 Management of anesthesia:
 Lubricate laryngoscope to reduce friction.
 Scarring of the oral cavity can produce immobility
of the tongue, therefore consider awake fiberoptic.
 Avoid esophageal stethoscopes.
 Ketamine is a good choice due to most surgeries
are superficial and to the extremities.
 Regional has been successful.
Pemphigus
 An autoimmune disease where auto antibodies are
highly specific and result in the excessive
production of proteolytic enzymes that disrupt cell
adhesion, leading to separation of epithelial layers.
 Pemphigus vulgaris is most common and most
clinically important to anesthesiologists because of
the occurrence of oral lesions.
 Lesions of the pharynx, larynx, esophagus,
conjunctiva, urethra, cervix, and anus also
develop.
Pemphigus
 Treatment with corticosteroids and
immunosupressants is highly effective.
 Management of Anesthesia:
 Corticosteroid supplementation.
 Upper airway techniques are similar to epidermolysis
bullosa.
 Ketamine and regional are also successful for these
patients.
 Look for side effects of treatment drugs with anesthesia.
Such as cyclophosphamide may prolong SCH and
mivacurium by inhibiting cholinesterase activity.
