Systemic sclerosis is a generalized disease of the connective tissue characterized by the expression of pathological manifestations of the skin, musculoskeletal system with damage to the heart, lungs, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract and diffuse vasospastic disorders caused by damage to the connective tissue and the predominance of fibrosis the type of obliterating microangiopathy. Cardiovascular manifestations occur in about 10% of patients with SSc, being an important predictor of patient mortality and often associated with an unfavorable prognosis.
