& Dermatology
OUTLINE
• Introduction
• Lupus
• Dermatomyositis/Polymyositis
• Scleroderma
– Systemic
– Localized
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
INTRODUCTION
Things to keep in mind…
• Introduce you to the physical findings in connective
tissue disease
• We’ll focus on PE findings, but remember CTD are
complicated, multi-system disorders
• Sometimes there’s overlap among the CTD’s
• These patients will need management by
Rheumatology, Dermatology, and other specialties
INTRODUCTION
DIAGNOSING CTD
• Based on clinical picture
• Antibody tests done to support diagnosis
– Provides subsets of disease
– Gives information on prognosis
SLE Classification
• American College of Rheumatology
– Having at least 4/11 is compatible with LE diagnosis
– Mnemonic: SOAP BRAIN MD

Lupus Erythematosus
• Cutaneous lupus has 3 major subsets
– Acute Cutaneous LE (aka Systemic LE)
– Subacute Cutaneous LE (SCLE)
– Chronic Cutaneous LE (aka Discoid Lupus)
• Others
– Neonatal lupus
– Drug-induced
Clinical Spectrum of Lupus
Acute LE
Subacute Cutaneous LE
Systemic disease
Chronic LE (Discoid)
Scarring
Acute Cutaneous (Systemic) LE
CLINICAL
• Rash on sun-exposed areas:
– Face, chest, shoulders, extensor arms, dorsal hands
– Malar rash seen in only 10-50% of acute lupus
• Superficial to indurated, non-pruritic red to
violaceous papules & plaques w/ fine scale
• Various combinations of systemic involvement
Malar rash of Lupus
SLE
Acute Cutaneous (Systemic) LE
• Hand of a lupus patient
– Affects phalangeal skin
– Spares the knuckles
• In comparison,
dermatomyositis has the
opposite findings!
– Spares the phalangeal skin
– Affects knuckles
Raynaud Phenomenon
Raynaud phenomenon (RP)
• Occurs in 10-30% SLE
• Precipitated by cold or emotional stress
• Sx: Fingers and/or toes w/ pallor, cyanosis, hyperemia 
Pain, burning, numbness/tingling, swelling, hyperhidrosis
Mneumonic – Red, White, & Blue
(really white, blue, red )
Other cutaneous signs of LE
• Telangiectasia
– Palms, fingers
– Periungual
• Alopecia (20%)
– Non-scarring
– Scarring—more common with DLE
• Urticaria-like plaques
• Rheumatoid nodules
Subacute cutaneous lupus (SCLE)
• Two patterns:
– Papulosquamous patterned lesions
– Annular-polycyclic pattern lesions
•
•
•
•
Lesions may last for months
No scarring
Most patients are white females
~50% of SCLE pts progress to SLE
Subacute cutaneous lupus
CLINICAL
• Distribution
– Trunk— most common
– Sun-exposed skin
• Subtle hypopigmentation, atrophy, & telangiectasia
• Photosensitivity, periungual telangiectasies,
vasculitis
• Systemic disease may occur, but usually not as
severe as SLE
SCLE
Sun-exposed skin
SCLE
Trunk skin (not sun-exposed)
Chronic LE (Discoid Lupus)
• Low incidence of systemic disease
– Only 5-10% evolve to SLE
• Females, 4th decade of life
• UV light initiates &
exacerbates disease
Chronic LE (Discoid Lupus)
CLINICAL
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
FACE & SCALP – MOST COMMON
Round, sharply demarcated
Asymmetric
Elevated red to violaceous flat topped
plaques
Adherent scale  “carpet tacking”
Atrophy
Scarring/scarring alopecia
Hypopigmentation
Follicular plugs
Discoid Lupus
•
•
•
•
•
Plugging
Atrophy
Scale
Telangiectasia
Erythema
•
•
•
•
Lesions endure for months
Resolve or become atrophic/scarred
Pigment alteration
Hypertrophic variant
• Conchal bowl of
ears—commonly
affected area!
Discoid LE
• Scarring alopecia with follicular plugging
Scalp hair-bearing areas
Dermatomyositis/Polymyositis
DM/PM
• Epidemiology
– Bimodal distribution
• Juvenile form
• Adult form (>40 yrs)
– Males = females
– Blacks to whites = 4:1
Dermatomyositis & Polymyositis
TYPES:
(1) Dermatomyositis (DM)
– Both muscle weakness & skin changes
(2) Polymyositis (PM)
– Muscle weakness, but NO skin changes
(3) Amyopathic Dermatomyositis
– Skin changes only
– NO muscle weakness
Muscle weakness in DM and PM
• Symmetric & proximal muscle weakness
– Hips/thighs characteristic
• eg. Difficult rising from chair
– Neck commonly affected
• eg. Drooped head
– Other muscles can be involved
• Pharyngeal, respiratory chest wall
Skin manifestation of DM
•
•
•
•
•
Heliotrope erythema of periorbit
Gottron’s sign
Gottron’s papules
Photosensitivity
Periungual erythema & telangiectases
Heliotrope rash
• Pathognomonic
• Periorbital edema
• Periorbital violaceous discoloration
–Involves upper eyelids
Gottron’s sign
• Symmetric, violaceous-to-erythematous
macules/patches over bony prominences
– knuckles, but spares phalanges
– Elbows & knees
• Gottron’s papules
– smooth, violaceous papules
– knuckles, side of fingers
Gottron’s papules
Photosensitivity / Poikiloderma
• typically on sun-exposed skin on trunk
Dermatomyositis
• Periungual erythema
– ragged cuticles
• Telangiectases
– dilated/plump capillary loops
If you diagnose DM/PM in an adult,
you must search for malignancy…
Malignancy in DM/PM
• ↑ incidence of cancer in DM > PM
• >50 y/o are at greatest risk
Malignancy in DM/PM
• Which cancers?
– Women
• Ovarian #1
• Breast, lymphoproliferative
– Men
• Prostate, colon, lymphoma, testicular
Work-up of DM/PM
• Diagnostic tests
– Skin biopsy
– Muscle enzymes—CK, ALT, AST, LDH, Aldolase
– Muscle biopsy
– MRI of muscles
• help locate muscles to biopsy, document flare-ups
– EMG
– Antibody screen:
• 90% ANA+
• Check Ro, La, Sm, nRNP, Jo-1, PM-1, Mi-2
– Presence can help define associated diseases
Scleroderma
SCLERODERMA
MULTI-SYSTEM FORMS
-Systemic Scleroderma/Sclerosis
-CREST Syndrome
Consider systemic involvement if:
-Raynaud phenomenon
-Nail fold capillary change’s
-Both
LOCALIZED FORMS
-Morphea
Rarely shows evidence of
visceral involvement
PROGRESSIVE SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS
(SCLERODERMA)
Systemic Scleroderma
• Characterized by
– sclerosis of the skin
– sclerosis of visceral organs
– vasculopathy (Raynaud’s)
– autoantibodies
• 2-12 case/1 million each year
Scleroderma—subtypes
• Systemic
– Diffuse scleroderma
– CREST syndrome
• Localized
– Morphea
Scleroderma—subtypes
• Systemic
– Diffuse scleroderma
• Skin – more extensive involvement
• Visceral – early appearance
• Worse prognosis
– CREST syndrome
• Skin – limited (face, fingers)
• Visceral – delayed appearance
• Better prognosis
Raynaud’s phenomenon
Raynaud Phenomenon
Raynaud phenomenon (RP)
• One of the major criteria for scleroderma
• Precipitated by cold or emotional stress
• Sx: Fingers and/or toes w/ pallor, cyanosis, hyperemia 
Pain, burning, numbness/tingling, swelling, hyperhidrosis
Mneumonic – Red, White, & Blue
(really white, blue, red )
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
• Skin Changes
– Begin distally
• fingers, hands
• face
– Progresses proximally
– 3 stages
• 1) Edematous
• 2) Indurated/sclerotic
• 3) Atrophic
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
• Edematous phase
– Skin thickened, swollen, tense
– Non-pitting edema
• “mask-like facies”
• “sausaging” of the fingers
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
• Indurative/Sclerotic
–
–
–
–
Skin hardened, bound down
Restricted range of motion
Contractures
Appendageal atrophy  hair loss,
anhidrosis
– Ulcerations, telangiectasia, and
atrophy
– Fingers narrow or taper distally
– Distal phalanges shortened due to
bone resorption
• Atrophic
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
• The face of scleroderma
–
–
–
–
–
–
Skin contracts, fixed to bone
Beaked nose
Furrowed perioral skin
Smaller oral aperture
Thinned lips
Facial telangiectases
Skin changes in Systemic Scleroderma
• Telangiectasias
– Flat/macular
– Rectangular collections of uniform, tiny vessels
– Lips, face, palms, back of hands
• Calcinosis cutis (CC) can be a late sequela to skin inflam
• CC occurs at sites of trauma
– Buttocks, elbows, knees, fingers, around shoulders
• Complications: local pain, contractures, infections
• SKIN MORPHOLOGY: Hard, irregular nodules draining
whitish, chalky material  Extrusion leads to ulcers, sinuses,
or cellulites
Multi-organ involvement in Scleroderma
• Gastrointestinal
– Esophagel dysfunction
• Dysphagia – most common
• Other symptoms: GERD, strictures
Multi-organ involvement in Scleroderma
• Respiratory
– Frequent cause of death
– Dyspnea—most common symptom
– Interstitial fibrosis
– Pulmonary hypertension (33%)
Multi-organ involvement in Scleroderma
• Renal
– Renal disease
– HTN
• Cardiovascular
– Myocardial fibrosis  arrhythmias
• Salivary
– Sclerosis of salivary glands  Sjogren’s-like
CREST syndrome
• aka “Limited cutaneous scleroderma”
• Sx:-Calcinosis
-Raynaud Phenomenon
-Esophageal dysmotility
-Sclerodactyly
-Telangiectasias
• Labs: Anti-centromere Antibodies
• More benign, chronic, and localized
• Better Prognosis!!!
CREST syndrome
• Calcinosis cutis
– Palmar tips of fingers
– Over bony prominences of knees, elbows, spine,
and iliac crests
Localized Scleroderma

• Other common areas: dorsal hands, knees, ears, & pressure pts
– Firm, non-tender
• Cuticular telangiectasias
