Some of the common symptoms of systemic sclerosis include the CREST syndrome, hardening and scarring of the skin, impairment in lung function, joint pains, etc. Diagnosis is based on the presence of autoantibodies or through a biopsy examination. Therapies for systemic sclerosis include immunosuppressive drugs as well as glucocorticoids. This book explores the clinical aspects of systemic sclerosis in the present day scenario.
