  • Title: Childhood eosinophilic fasciitis--progression to linear scleroderma.
    Author: Williams HJ, Ziter FA, Banta CA.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1986 Oct; 13(5):961-2. PubMed ID: 3820208.
    Abstract:
    A 2-year 10-month old girl developed eosinophilic fasciitis that resolved within one year after the administration of prednisone. She was left with changes similar to chronic linear scleroderma. Our case illustrates that eosinophilic fasciitis can occur in very young children and reinforces the hypothesis that it may be an early manifestation of scleroderma.
