Abstract :Localized Scleroderma: A Case Report A 3.5-year-old female was admitted with large patchy indurated lesions of the skin of left hand and foot. The involved joints had flexion contractures. The skin biopsy showed mononuclear cell infiltration of the subcutaneous tissue. Based on these findings she was diagnosed as morphea. She was positive for antinuclear antibodies, anti dsDNA antibodies and rheumatoid factor. In addition, she had high serum Ig G, Ig M levels and low serum C3 levels. She also had increased percentages of activated T lymphocytes and total B lymphocytes. Lastly, her helper/supressor T cell ratio was increased. All of these immunologic findings suggest that active phase of a systemic generalized otoimmun disease, because they are not features of localized scleroderma. However, after one year, our patient did not have any signs of another connective tissue disease or no involvement of visceral organs. Üç buçuk yaşında sol ön kol, el ve ayak derisinde yama tarzında, geniş, endüre lezyonlan bulunan bir kız çocuğu sunuldu. Etkilenen bölgelerdeki eklemlerde fleksiyon kont-raktürleri olan hastanın cilt biyopsisinde subkütanöz dokuda mononükleer hücre in-filtrasyonu görüldü. Bu bulgulara dayanılarak morfea tanısı konuldu. Hastada antinükleer antikor, anti dsDNA ve romatoid faktör pozitif bulundu. Ayrıca Ig G, Ig M seviyeleri yüksek, C3 seviyesi düşük, aktive T lenfosit ve total B lenfositlerinde artış tespit edildi, T helper / T supressör oranı yüksek bulundu. Tüm bu immünolojik tetkik sonuçları lokalize skleroderma için beklenen bulgular olmayıp jeneralize sistemik bir otoimmun hastalığın aktif fazını desteklemektedir. Ancak bir yıllık takip sonunda, hastamızda herhangi bir iç organ tutulumu ya da başka bir kollojen doku hastalığına ilişkin bulgu yoktur.
