Die Akrosklerosis (Sklerodaktylie) und deren Symptomenkomplex nebst neueren Untersuchungen bei Sklerodermie

Abstract: Wollen wit die Frage beantworten, wohin die Akrosklerose (die Sklerodaktylie) geh6rt und worin eigent]ich das Wesen dieser Krankheit besteht, so mfissen wir neben dem dermatologischen auch den neurologischen Standpunkt in Betracht ziehen. Um die Kl~rung der Pathogenese und ~tiologie dieses Krankheitsbildes haben sich fibrigens die Neurologen viel bem(iht. Aus der ~lteren Literatur erw~hne ich nur Cassirer 1, dessen A_rbeiten auch in neuerer Zeit fiir die neurologische Bearbeitung der Frage mai~gebend waren, so… Show more

“…At one end of the spectrum there is acrosclerosis, usually slowly progressive with minimal systemic involvement and a good progress (Sellei, 1931;O'Leary and Waisman, 1943;Stava, 1959); at the other extreme there is a rapidly progressive sclero-(i derma with extensive visceral involvement usually i t with a fatal fulminant course (Osler, 1892;Goetz, 1945;Tuffanelli and Winkelmann, 1962). Vascular involvement is a common accompaniment: Raynaud's phenomenon is present in about 90 % of patients (Goetz, 1945) often antedating the skin and visceral changes by several years (Bennett et al, 1971).…”

“…Eleven of the 1959 series patients and 14 of the 34 additional patients had died. The sex ratio now showed a predominance of women (44 women and 17 men), mostly with skin tightness limited to the extremities (Sellei’s acrosclerosis) 14 . Skin tightness was often more widespread than was evident on superficial examination as shown by extending the head (‘neck sign’).…”

“…Meanwhile, Ehrman (1903) had remarked on cesophageal changes in scleroderma, a finding which was overlooked for twenty-eight years. Sellei (1931Sellei ( , 1932 and recognized two types of dermatosclerosis: acrosclerosis and generalized. O' Leary and Waisman (1943) defined the differences between these two types, remarking that acrosclerosis affected women, that visceral lesions were common and the prognosis good, while generalized dermatosclerosis affected either sex, visceral lesions being rare and the prognosis bad.…”
