Abstract:
:Lower-limb ulcers in systemic sclerosis patients are rarely reported. The aim of this study was to describe the main causes and outcomes of lower-limb ulcers in systemic sclerosis patients and to assess factors associated with ischaemic causes (arterial disease and/or microvascular impairment). A retrospective, multicentre, case-control study was conducted in 2013 and 2014, including 45 systemic sclerosis patients presenting lower-limb ulcers between 2008 and 2013. The estimated prevalence of lower-limb ulcers among systemic sclerosis patients was 12.8%. Ulcers were related to venous insufficiency in 22 cases (49%), ischaemic causes in 21 (47%) and other causes in 2 (4%). Complete healing was observed in 60% of cases in a mean time of 10.3 months; 59% relapsed during a mean follow-up of 22 months. Ischaemic lower-limb ulcer outcomes were poor, with a 28.6% amputation rate. Logistic-regression multivariate analyses between ischaemic lower-limb ulcer cases and matched systemic sclerosis-controls identified past or concomitant digital ulcer and cutaneous sclerosis of the feet as independent risk factors associated with ischaemic lower-limb ulcers.
