Résumé

Connective tissue disorders (CTD) are a group of disorders affecting the connective tissues. Usually the musculoskeletal and the vascular system is impacted. Along with these systems, the nervous system is also involved in CTD, which leads to various neurological manifestations. The pathophysiology of neurological complications of CTD is caused by various factors and is complicated. Disturbed immune complexes, chronic inflammation, and autoimmunity in which the body attacks its cells are considered to be responsible for the neurological complications of CTD. Additionally, the vascular symptoms that lead to decreased blood flow to the brain are also responsible for the neurological manifestations of CTD in diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In SLE, vessel wall integrity is compromised, which may lead to decreased blood flow leading to neurological complications. CTD can manifest a variety of neurological complications. These neurological complications can be classified into symptoms affecting the peripheral nervous system, central nervous system, and the autonomic nervous system. Some of the common neurological complications of CTD are headaches, seizures, ataxia, neuropathies leading to cranial nerve palsies, myelopathies, tremors, encephalitis, and cerebral infarction. Cranial nerve palsies can disturb sensations, vision, hearing, and mastication. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are also commonly observed in CTD. Cognitive dysfunction can be caused due to neuropsychiatric problems. Some of the cognitive dysfunctions are lack of concentration, memory loss, confusion, and coma. In this review, we will address various neurological manifestations of CTD.
