ABSTRACT
Localized scleroderma is a connective-tissue disorder that is limited to the skin and subcutaneous tissue, sometimes involving muscles beneath the cutaneous lesions. Although it is usually a self-limiting disease, complications like growth failure, joint contractures, deformities and functional impairment may occur resulting in significant morbidity. Herein we report a 9-year-old girl who presented with hemiatrophy as a major clinical feature associated with widespread multiple hyperpigmented sclerotic plaques. The patient proved to be a relatively rare case of hemiatrophy secondary to extensive generalized morphea also having complicating features of joint contracture and growth failure of involved extremities.
