Abstract

A patient with progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS) of recent onset had a rapid progression of cutaneous and renal disease in less than 1 year and at autopsy was found to have carcinoma of the lung. The rapid progression and atypical presentation of her PSS suggests that it represented a systemic manifestation of her primary pulmonary malignancy.
