Abstract excerpt

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) tends to occur in a sporadic fashion and familial occurrence of the disease is unusual. Nevertheless, reports of related connective tissue diseases (CTD), autoantibodies, or both in family members together with associations of certain HLA class II phenotypes with SSc suggest that genetic factors might play a part in susceptibility to the disease. Because of the relative rarity of SSc only...
