Abstract:
Scleroderma is a rare connective tissue disorder with multisystem involvement with unknown and complex etiopathogenesis. Scleroderma is classified based on clinical and serological criteria and can be divided into two forms: localized scleroderma or systemic sclerosis, which can further be classified into limited systemic sclerosis or diffuse systemic sclerosis. There are few cases of aortic aneurysm and left ventricle aneurysm in systemic sclerosis but no such case in limited scleroderma in available literature. Here, we describe a rare case of limited systemic sclerosis with left ventricular aneurysm.
