Abstract
Connective tissue disorders such as scleroderma, dermatomyositis and lupus erythematosus are autoimmune, multi-system disorders whose clinical manifestations can be restricted to the skin or may involve many organs. The degree and rate of organ system involvement defer, as does the prognosis and rapidity of disease progression. In this article, scleroderma, dermatomyositis and lupus erythematosus will be reviewed in respect to their life-threatening potential.
