This book covers autoimmune connective tissue diseases, an enigmatic
area of dermatology that often pose a challenge to the treating
dermatologists. The numerous presentations of systemic lupus
erythematosus, the complications of systemic sclerosis, and the
never-ending confusion regarding mixed connective tissue diseases are
just the tip of an iceberg, making the subject look complex. On the
contrary, once the concepts regarding pathogenesis and autoantibodies
are cleared, treating these patients becomes less challenging. For a
long time, we felt a gap in outlining a simple approach to these
connective tissue diseases in the existing dermatology literature.
This book has been written to explain the concepts in a less daunting
manner and can be easily understood by both postgraduate residents and
practicing consultants of dermatology. The chapters provide a
systematic approach to the diagnosis and management of various
connective tissue diseases with the help of tables/ algorithms and
flowcharts. This book targets both postgraduate residents as well as
practicing dermatologists. The complex subject of connective tissue
diseases has been explained easily for better understanding and
retention. It also highlights the holistic management of the patient.
