Skin manifestations are often associated with systemic autoimmune diseases (SAD). Some SAD, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis and scleroderma display pathognomonic dermatological features, whereas other systemic diseases such as sarcoidosis, vasculitis and rheumatoid arthritis can present with non-specific skin manifestations that range from erythema nodosum to necrotic lesions. Here we report the case of a 25-year-old man with uveitis, polyarthrirtis, pulmonary involvement, nephrotic syndrome, cutaneous granuloma and pneumonia by E. coli.

Abstract
Skin manifestations are often associated with systemic autoimmune diseases (SAD). Some SAD, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis and scleroderma display pathognomonic dermatological features, whereas other systemic diseases such as sarcoidosis, vasculitis and rheumatoid arthritis can present with non-specific skin manifestations that range from erythema nodosum to necrotic lesions. Here we report the case of a 25-year-old man with uveitis, polyarthrirtis, pulmonary involvement, nephrotic syndrome, cutaneous granuloma and pneumonia by E. coli.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
