Notes:
Eighty-eight children with morphoea were followed up over a lo-year period. In 63, morphoea was a benign, self-limited disease which healed with minimal cosmetic alteration. A child who suffered from morphoea en plaque showed progression into systemic sclerosis and involvement of internal organs. Linear forms (16 cases), pansclerotic morphoea (2 cases) and facial hemiatrophy (6 cases) caused severe cosmetic, orthopaedic, psychological problems and were not influenced by medicaments. In 40% of these forms ANA could be detected showing speckled fluorescence, but the significance should not be overemphasized.
