“…This paradox may even be a helpftul indicator towards the correct diagnosis (Tumulty, 1954;Nesgovorova, 1966). Although radiological evidence of bone erosions has been reported to occur in patients with SLE (Gould and Daves, 1955;Phocas, Andriotakis, Kaklamanis, and Antonopoulos, 1967), it is known to be rare, and indeed damage due to avascular necrosis is more frequent (Labowitz and Schumacher, 1971). …”

“…In all cases we know of where radiological examinations have been reported, there have been no erosive changes (Schumacher, I975i Krauser & Tuthill, 1977;Bennett et ai, 1977;Lupton & Goette, 1979;Rosenthal & Benson, 1980). Arthritis may be an early feature of progressive systemic sclerosis, and fibrosis of the synovium is characteristic, but erosions are probably uncommon (Rodnan, 1962;Phocas, Andriotakise & Kaklamanis, 1967). The much more frequently seen acral osteolytic changes of progressive systemic sclerosis were absent in our case.…”

Summary A 64‐year‐old man developed a symmetrical erosive polyarthritis affecting the hands and feet in association with a progressive woody induration of the limbs and flexion contractures, Investigations showed peripheral eosinophilia and an inflammatory fibrosis maximally involving the deep fascia. The relationship of eosinophilic fasciitis to morphoea and progressive systemic sclerosis is discussed.

“…Commonly affected joints are the wrists, shoulders, ankles, and hips, with the distal joints often affected first. Involvement is typically symmetric and can be progressive, involving more areas of the skin and joints over time [16][17][18]. Cutaneous and musculoskeletal involvement [12,19] and tendinopathy [20] are often associated with joint complications in CTD aggravating their outcome (tendon contractions, joint deformities, and destructions).…”

Connective Tissue Disease (CTD) is a heterogeneous group of chronic inflammatory conditions characterized by involvement of conjunctive tissue and a common autoimmune signature. These diseases include systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, systemic sclerosis, Sjogren's syndrome, mixed CTDs, and undifferentiated CTDs. Cutaneous, articular, muscular, pulmonary and cardiovascular manifestations are among the most frequent during these diseases and often lead to a functional and physical disability that sometimes severely affects the quality of life of these patients. Rehabilitation and physical therapy play a crucial role in the management of patients with CTDs but despite their proven benefits, they are often neglected and represent a challenge for clinicians. This overview focuses on the rehabilitation of cutaneous, musculoskeletal and cardio-pulmonary involvement of CTDs.
