title: [Raynaud syndrome. A case report].
abstract: Symptomatology, diagnosis, treatment, and clinical course of a Raynaud syndrome in a sixteen-year old patient beginning in the second year of his life are described. He lost all distal phalanges of both hands and big toes at the age of nine. Remarkable was the laboratory finding of an extremely high serum IgE concentration. A combined therapy of plasmapheresis, immunosuppression and corticosteroids improved the clinical and laboratory findings.
