Complete capillaroscopy study illustrating early scleroderma-pattern microangiopathy with preserved density.

AuthorBorja Gracia Tello

Clinical context

In early Cutolo SSc, the descriptive label should be integrated with Raynaud history, autoantibodies, and the broader clinical assessment.

Capillaroscopy

The study shows scattered giant capillaries and limited hemorrhages while capillary density and overall architecture remain relatively preserved.

Key Capillaroscopic Findings

Few giant capillaries on a preserved-density background
Limited hemorrhages
No established avascular areas or major disorganization

Early SSc Cutolo Pattern: Representative Case

The study shows scattered giant capillaries and limited hemorrhages while capillary density and overall architecture remain relatively preserved.

Recorded measurements

Capillary density: 7.78capillaries/mm
Enlarged capillaries: 68.26%
Giant capillaries: 0.96%
Hemorrhages: 0.21/mm

Values from the saved analysis: density and hemorrhages per total analyzed length; percentages of the total capillary count. These are not measurements of an individual image and may differ from averages across fields.
