[Clinical aspects and diagnosis of diffuse eosinophilic fasciitis].
The authors presented an analysis of 10 cases of eosinophilic fasciitis (EF): 6 men and 4 women aged 18 to 55. In 4 patients the disease followed excessive physical exercise. Pronounced induration of the limb tissues with the development of flexion contractures, hypereosinophilia prevailed in the clinical picture of the disease, morphology showed a picture of fasciitis. A positive time course was noted in the presence of corticosteroid therapy which in 2 patients was combined with azathioprine and carbohemoperfusion. Besides, there was a patient with the combination of the classical signs of scleredema and EF. EF appears to be a nosological entity. The probability of combined forms requires a further study.

[Differential diagnosis of diffuse eosinophilic fasciitis].
The authors studied clinical course, morphological findings, condition of microcirculation in 22 patients with diffuse fasciitis++ in comparison with 20 patients with systemic scleroderma and 20 patients with other similar diseases. Comparing clinico-laboratory data of 62 patients sharp differences were observed between diffuse fasciitis++ and systemic scleroderma. In diffuse fasciitis++ microcirculation disorders were less marked than in systemic scleroderma. According to the above research diffuse eosinophilic fasciitis++ is considered to be an independent nosologic form.
