    A patient with overlap syndrome: systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, and Sjögren’s syndrome – a rare overlapping diseases case report
    (Publishing Office of the University of Rzeszow, 2023-09) Sokołowska, Aldona; Iwański, Mateusz; Dąbrowski, Piotr
    Introduction and aim. Autoimmune rheumatic diseases are a group of disorders with similar clinical, laboratory and immunological manifestations. Connective tissue diseases include systemic scleroderma, dermatomyositis or polymyositis, Sjögren’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. If the patient meets the diagnostic criteria for at least two of these diseases and has specific serologic markers, a diagnosis of overlap syndrome is possible. Description of the case. This case describes a 27-year-old man who had a history of paroxysmal fever, night sweats, erythema-like skin lesions on the forearms and lower legs, a feeling of progressive muscle weakness especially in the proximal muscles, and dry mouth. The patient was diagnosed with an overlap syndrome: systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, and Sjögren’s syndrome. Conclusion. Overlap syndrome is difficult to treat due to its multisystem nature, requiring a symptomatic therapeutic approach and careful control of medication doses to reduce side effects while controlling disease activity.

    Introduction and aim. Oral manifestation of the disorder is the leading cause of common initial features of most autoimmune diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to present different oral manifestations of selected autoimmune diseases. Material and methods. We systematically reviewed the etiology, signs and symptoms, oral manifestations, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment plan, and prognosis. We searched the articles on PubMed, Google Scholar and Web of Science for the following search term: Behcet’s disease, lichen planus, mucous membrane pemphigoid and bullous pemphigoid, pemphigus vulgarisms and paraneoplastic pemphigus, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren’s syndrome, IgG4-related disease, systemic lupus erythematous, and granulomatosis with polyangitis. Analysis of the literature. We conducted that the disorder’s oral manifestation causes most autoimmune illnesses’ earliest symptoms. Conclusion. Clinical-pathological is a piece of requisite knowledge for the dentist to recognize and diagnose in the early phase of the symptoms.
