Abstract
An infant girl with partial phenylketonuria developed pseudoscleroderma. After six years of follow up, both the neurologic and cutaneous conditions improved under a phenylalanine restricted diet. The probable roles of phenylalanine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and their metabolites may cause both conditions through possible transient hypersensitivity of cutaneous and muscular tissues.Entities:
