Abstract
Eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) is characterized by the presence of scleroderma-like changes in the skin, inflammation and thickening of the fascia, associated with peripheral eosinophilia. Visceral involvement, telangiectasis, Raynaud's phenomenon, or gangrene of the digit is very unusual in EF. We describe a patient with EF that was accompanied by Raynaud's phenomenon and gangrene of the finger due to occlusive vasculitis of small and medium arteries in extremities.Entities:
