Abstract:
Linear scleroderma is a form of localized scleroderma that presents as band-like sclerotic lesions. When it occurs on the scalp or forehead, it is called "en coup de sabre scleroderma" (ECDS). Extracutaneous associations, mostly neurologic, have been described with ECDS. We report a patient with ECDS associated with multiple cerebral cavernomas. This serves to highlight the importance of neuroimaging and multidisciplinary team involvement in patients with ECDS.
