ABSTRACT
Scleredema of Buschke is a connective tissue disease of unknown
etiology, characterized by an excess of dermal acid mucopolysaccharides.
It is considered an adult disease, but can also
occur in children. Clinically it may be preceded by an acute febrile
illness, usually infectious. The onset is insidious and gradual,
beginning in the neck and spreads to face, shoulder, upper trunk,
and arms, producing a diffuse and symmetrical induration of
the skin, without edema, with a normal color and woody like on
palpation and usually asymptomatic. The differential diagnosis
must be made with scleroderma, dermatomyositis, rheumatic
fever and other widespread indurations of the skin.
