Acute Spontaneous Colonic Perforation in a Case of Newly Confirmed Scleroderma: Case Report

Acute Spontaneous Colonic Perforation in a Case of Newly Confirmed Scleroderma: Case Report

The focus of this paper will be to present a case of a spontaneous colonic bowel perforation in a patient with incomplete features of CREST. Currently, only a few case reports exist documenting this relatively rare but recognized complication. Typically, gastrointestinal (GI) complications seen in CREST syndrome involve the esophagus; however, evolving data are demonstrating that concomitant distal GI pathologies are extremely common [3-6], as exemplified by this case.
