Juvenile Linear Scleroderma Associated With Serologic Abnormalities
Archives of Dermatology, 1985We investigated 24 juvenile cases of linear scleroderma for the presence of systemic disease and serologic abnormalities. Thirteen of 24 patients had antinuclear antibodies (ANA) at titers of 1:40 or greater. Rheumatoid factor (titers greater than or equal to 1:20) was detected in seven of 17 patients tested, five of whom also had ANA.
