Zusammenfassung

In diesem Artikel werden mögliche Assoziationen von rheumatischen Krankheiten mit häufigen und weniger häufigen hämatologischen Manifestationen beschrieben. Dabei wird insbesondere auf verschiedene Formen der Anämie, Leukopenie und Thrombopenie bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen eingegangen. Die Manifestation von malignen Tumoren bei RA und Kollagenosen sowie mögliche Ursachen werden ebenfalls diskutiert. Darüber hinaus sind auch rheumatische Manifestationen bei hämatologischen Krankheiten Thema dieser Übersicht. Ziel des Artikels ist es, einen Überblick über die vielfältigen Assoziationen von rheumatischen und hämato-/onkologischen Erkrankungen zu geben, die in der klinischen Praxis von Bedeutung sein könnten.

Summary

The association of rheumatic diseases with common and some of the less common hematological features such as different forms of anemia, leukopenia and thrombopenia are described in this article. In addition, the occurrence of malignancy in rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, myositis and scleroderma and possible causes are discussed. On the other hand, this review also focuses on various rheumatological manifestations of hematological diseases such as leukemia and lymphoma. The aim of the article is to give an overview of the various associations between rheumatological and hemato-/oncological diseases that have to be considered in clinical practice.
