The Service is well known for its experience in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, antiphospholipid syndrome, systemic sclerosis, Sjögren's syndrome, systemic vasculitis, sarcoidosis and auto-inflammatory diseases.

More than 1,000 new patients with these diseases are treated each year and more than 3,000 are monitored periodically. Pregnant women with these diseases are also monitored, with an annual check-up of more than 80 pregnancies.
