Abstract

Scleroderma is a rare connective tissue disease that is manifested by cutaneous sclerosis and variable systemic involvement [1]. Two categories of scleroderma are known: systemic sclerosis (SSc), characterized by cutaneous sclerosis and visceral involvement, and localized scleroderma (LoS) or morphea which is confined to the skin and/or underlying tissues [1,2].
