Kaplan syndrome
Caplan syndrome is also known as rheumatoid pneumoconiosis syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis-pneumoconiosis syndrome, silicosis arthritis, etc. In 1953, British Caplan found that pneumoconiosis coal miners with rheumatoid arthritis may have specific lung shadows, and later generations called this disease Caplan syndrome. Later, it was confirmed that inhalation of free silicic acid, silicates, iron, aluminum and other inorganic dusts can also produce this syndrome. At present, silicosis combined with rheumatoid arthritis and characteristic shadows in the lungs are all called Caplan syndrome.
