[Rheumatic manifestations of erythema elevatum diutinum].
The authors report on a case of erythema elevatum diutinum developing at the same time as a seropositive rheumatoid polyarthritis. Disulone, moderately active on skin lesions, has little influence on the development of arthritis that have reacted well to treatment with D-penicillamine. A review of the literature makes it possible to identify the type of rheumatismal manifestations and immunological disorders accompanying the dermatosis. Three etiological circumstances must be looked for : focal infection, malignant lymphopathy, connectivitis.
