摘要：

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) was observed in 4 cases of a consecutive series of 16 patients admitted for the initial diagnosis or follow-up of systemic scleroderma from 1986 to 1990. We also observed one case of ulnar nerve compression. Neurological involvement was confirmed by electromyogram, and motor and sensory nerve conduction studies. The neurological signs appeared at the beginning of the disease in two cases and preceded the discovery of scleroderma in two. CTS is not rare in scleroderma and must be carefully sought, both clinically and electrophysiologically. Patients with 'idiopathic' CTS might need clinical follow-up for early diagnosis of scleroderma.
