Abstract:
A 57-year--woman with Reynolds syndrome (primary biliary cirrhosis and scleroderma) is reported. Diagnosis of primary biliary cirrhosis is based on clinical findings, laboratory tests results and histological result of liver biopsy. Scleroderma was confirmed by anticentromere antibodies presence, and typical skin lesions. Although, antimitochondrial antibodies are very typical for PBC (primary biliary cirrhosis), in this case the were not found.
