Hypogammaglobulinemia in patients affected by limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis: Case series and review of the literature
This is the first study describing a cohort of patients with limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis and hypogammaglobulinemia. Our population presented a high prevalence of immune-mediated comorbidities but low infection rates. Further research is needed to explore the underlying mechanisms and clinical significance of hypogammaglobulinemia in these patients.
