The authors present the case-history of a female patient with non-differentiated connective tissuedisease of the systemic lupus erythematosus type with features of Sjögren’s syndrome, rheumatoidarthritis and vascularitis.

The authorsanalyze the incidence of osteonecroses in systemic connective tissue disease, in particular thosetreated with Cs and the necessity of early detection of osteonecrosis.
