Scleroderma en coup de sabre can affect the eyes and brain, causing vision problems and severe seizures. Inflammation extends beyond the skin in this rare condition.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Neurology
  • Ophthalmology

Background:

  • Scleroderma en coup de sabre is a rare subtype of localized scleroderma.
  • Ocular and neurological manifestations are uncommon but serious complications.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with scleroderma en coup de sabre, posterior uveitis, and intractable grand mal seizures.
  • Clinical presentation suggested systemic involvement beyond the skin.

Findings:

  • Histopathology confirmed inflammatory processes.
  • Neuroradiology investigations supported the diagnosis of central nervous system involvement.
  • Inflammation was found to extend beyond the cutaneous manifestations.

Implications:
