Abstract

Scleredema is an uncommon fibromucinous connective tissue disease occurring frequently in adults but rarely in children. It is most commonly seen in postinfectious settings or linked to hematological disorders or diabetes. A 5-year-old male child presented with induration and thickening of the skin over the extremities, face, and neck. Clinical and histological features were consistent with scleredema. Various treatment modalities are available for scleredema. The patient responded well to systemic steroids. This case is being reported for its rare occurrence in young children.
