Chronic cutaneous circumscritical scleroderma
Skin and subcutaneous (L00-L99).
- Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus – rare, chronic inflammatory progressive connective tissue disease that is probably one of the autoimmune diseases.
- Pseudoscleroderma (tight skin atrophy (atrophy = decrease) under the image of scleroderma).
Musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (M00-M99).
- Incipient systemic scleroderma (diffuse cutaneous type).
Systemic scleroderma
Skin and subcutaneous (L00-L99).
- Pseudoscleroderma (tight skin atrophy (atrophy = decrease) under the picture of scleroderma).
- Scleromyxedema – mucinous deposition in the skin; localized and systemic fibrosis; frequency associated with gammopathies (see below monoclonal gammopathy).
- Scleroedema adultorum Buschke – potentially reversible cutaneous-subcutaneous mucinosis (disease associated with increased deposition of glycosaminoglycans in the dermis).
- Scleredema (doughy edema of the skin with hardening) on the upper body.
Cardiovascular system (I00-I99)
- Raynaud’s syndrome (Raynaud’s disease) – vascular disease characterized by seizure-like paling of the hands or feet due to vasospasm (vascular spasm).
Musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (M00-M99).
- Eosinophilic fasciitis (Shulman syndrome) (affects the extremity fascia (fascia = soft tissue components of connective tissue) and subcutis (subcutaneous tissue), not affecting the hands and feet; acute onset, chronic course) with blood eosinophilia.
Psyche – Nervous System (F00-F99; G00-G99).
- Carpal tunnel syndrome (KTS) – (compression syndrome (narrowing syndrome) of the median nerve in the region of the carpal canal).
Injuries, poisonings and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T98).
- Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF; synonyms: Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy; dialysis-associated systemic fibrosis); occurs in renal failure patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 ; initial symptoms include pain, pruritus (itching) swelling, and erythema ((skin redness); cobblestone-like, hypopigmented plaques (patchy or squamous substance proliferation of the skin); possibly. also fibrosis (proliferation of connective tissue fibers) of the lungs, liver, muscles, diaphragm and heart; poor prognosis, especially with lung involvement; etiology (cause): exposure to gadolinium-containing contrast media.
