To discuss the relationship with Buschke's scleroderma.
To evaluate the initial diagnostic difficulties and prognosis.

Summary:

Eight cases were classified into systemic scleroderma, mixed connective tissue disease, and Shulman's syndrome.
Diagnostic challenges were noted in the early stages.
A relatively favorable prognosis was observed, with one fatality.
