Progressive Hemifacial Atrophy with Linear Scleroderma

Pediatric Dermatology, 2005
Abstract:  We describe a 4‐year‐old girl with hemifacial atrophy. She had a linear white‐colored sclerotic plaque on the right submandibular area of skin. Histologic findings of the lesion were consistent with a diagnosis of scleroderma. The relationship between progressive facial hemiatrophy and linear scleroderma are discussed.
