Abstract:
Linear scleroderma involving the frontal or frontoparietal region of the scalp (with or without associated facial hemiatrophy) is called "en coup de sabre" (like the stroke of a sabre). We report a case which to the best of our knowledge is only the fifth instance of this subset of localized morphea occurring in a bilateral distribution. We believe that the rarity of this presentation warrants a report.
