Abstract:
A case of scleroedema is reported in a 28-year-old man with severe neuromuscular involvement. Failure in neural conduction as well as muscular degeneration and necrosis were seen. Histopathological study showed resorption and formation of scar tissue probably secondary to ischaemia. In addition there was increase in neutral, sulphated and non-sulphated mucosubstances in the dermal and endomysial connective tissue.
