describes clinical findings of a 28-year old female patient presented with
non-healing digit ulcer and Raynaud¡¯s phenomenon. Upon investigation was found
to have high eosinophil count alongside hypocomplementemia. This patient was
diagnosed with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis and was started on therapy;
her other laboratory findings were attributed to a coinciding helminthic
infection. This case suggests the possibility of having two different diagnoses presenting
at once causing a clinical dilemma.
