Disabling pansclerotic morphea of childhood and hypogammaglobulinemia: a curious association.

S Singh, L Kumar, B D Radotra.   

Abstract

This communication describes a 1.5-year-old girl who presented with multiple episodes of infection since early infancy and stiffening of limbs for 2 months. Biopsy of the involved areas showed features consistent with pansclerotic morphea. Immunoglobulin estimation revealed hypogammaglobulinemia. This unique combination of pansclerotic morphea with hypogammaglobulinemia has not been reported before.
