Abstract
Patients with systemic sclerosis (125) were surveyed for neurological manifestations in a prospective study. Seven (5.6%) were found to have a defined neurologic lesion: 4 with carpal tunnel syndrome and 1 each with trigeminal neuralgia, mononeuritis multiplex and peripheral neuropathy. Neurological involvement occurs but is uncommon in this connective tissue disorder.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
