Abstract

Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) is a condition characterized by the overlap of features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis (SSc) and polydermatomyositis (PM/DM) in association with high titers of antibodies against a ribonuclear protein (RNP). Clinical manifestations of MCTD are extremely variable and disease onset may be undifferentiated.
