Résumé
Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is a rare, multisystemic connective tissue disease associated with significant morbidity. Early recognition of patients at risk for adverse prognosis may help towards optimized monitoring and treatment, thus improving disease outcome. To correlate nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) findings ('early', 'active', 'late' scleroderma patterns and non-specific capillary abnormalities) with major organ involvement and prognosis in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Patients from the Scleroderma cohort followed at the Rheumatology clinic of the University Hospital of Heraklion will be included. The study will include a prospective and a retrospective part.
