Please see part 2 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KLeGkeREkM

Scleroderma is derived from the Greek words, sclero meaning hardness and derma meaning skin, literally meaning hard skin. It is an autoimmune disease that involves overproduction of collagen which results in the hardening, tightening and scarring of skin and internal organs. It affects about 2.5 million people worldwide. This video is Part 1 of 2, in which we will discuss the different forms of scleroderma and the problems associated with each of them, in hope that you will be more informed about this complicated disease. This video is created by fourth year McMaster Students: Nabeelah Khan, Andrew Nguyen, Helen Kim, Tosin Tomiwa, Kosalan Akilan, and Justin Lu for McMaster’s Demystifying Medicine seminar series.
