FEITO RODRIGUEZ, M. et al. Acrocyanosis as a form of presentation of systemic sclerosis. An. Med. Interna (Madrid) [online]. 2006, vol.23, n.10, pp.490-492. ISSN 0212-7199.
Acrocyanosis is an infrequent entity characterized by persistent and symmetrical erythrocyanotic discoloration of the hands, feet and face, which is not preceded by episodes of previous paleness. Acrocyanosis can be secondary to a variety of underlying causes, but is uncommon as a form of presentation of systemic sclerosis. We present a new clinical case of this disease and discuss its etiopathogenic, clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic characteristics; in addition to, we seek to distinguish this term from others that might be confused in the literature.
