Understanding the Link Between Scleroderma and Cancer- Laura K. Hummers, M.D., Sc.M.- 2018

Описание к видео Understanding the Link Between Scleroderma and Cancer- Laura K. Hummers, M.D., Sc.M.- 2018

While studies have suggested that the risk of cancer might be increased in scleroderma patients, the reason for this association has not been well understood. Possible reasons for the connection will be explored in this session. Specifically, however, we will focus on more recent data suggesting that cancer is the source of the autoimmune response in scleroderma, suggesting that it may be part of what may cause scleroderma in a subset of patients. Implications this may have for treatment and screening for cancer amongst patients with scleroderma will also be discussed.
