    Author: García Meseguer MC, Fernández Gutiérrez F, García Miguel MJ, Vidal López ML, Gutiérrez Molina M, García Hortelano J.
    Journal: An Esp Pediatr; 1982 Sep; 17(3):234-9. PubMed ID: 7158868.
    Abstract:
    A three year old is described with clinical findings of oedema and induration of skin in the right leg, eosinophilia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and pathological lesions of eosinophilic fasciitis in the deep muscle's fascia. 94 cases published in the literature are reviewed and clinico-biochemical pathological findings and outcome of this syndrome discussed. In general this entity has a good prognosis with steroid therapy. Authors emphasise the rarity of the disease in children, and the early onset in their patient.
