Abstract

|
Overlap syndrome is defined as a disease entity that satisfies the classification criteria of at least two connective tissue diseases occurring concurrently or separately in a single patient. Here, we report a rare case of a 59-year-old woman with diffuse systemic sclerosis with lung involvement?rheumatoid arthritis overlap syndrome accompanied by cutaneous sarcoidosis. Although there is no consensus for the optimal treatment of overlap syndrome to date, this case of co-existing rheumatoid arthritis and systemic sclerosis with interstitial lung disease successfully responded to abatacept.
