Scleroderma with type III glomerulonephritis and MPO-ANCA antibodies in the serum

Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease characterized by early inflammatory infiltrates followed by fibrosis in the skin and internal organs. CREST is a relatively benign cutaneous variant of scleroderma that features calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, oesophageal dysfunction, sclerodactyly and telangiectases. Glomerulonephritis is a rare association of CREST. We are reporting a patient with CREST who developed glomerulonephritis and had anticentromere and antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) in her serum.
