A patient with CREST syndrome (calcinosis cutis, Raynaud's phenomenon, esophageal dysmotility, sclerodactyly, and telangiectasia) who had severe jaundice (total bilirubin 29.1 mg/dl) and rapidly progressive liver damage is reported. The liver damage findings matched the criteria of autoimmune chronic active hepatitis (CAH). There have been no prior reports of a case of CREST syndrome with autoimmune CAH in Japan. Anticentromere antibody (ACA) was detected in the serum; ACA seemed to be related to the pathogenesis of these two diseases.
