ABSTRACT
We report a case of systemic sclerosis, limited type, in a 5 year old boy in Taiwan. He presented with erythema, tight skin over his face and digits, subcutaneous calcification, telangiectasis, as well as Raynaud's phenomenon. The laboratory data showed weakly positive antinuclear antibody (ANA), and Topoisomerase 1 antibody (anti-Scl-70) titers. However his esophagogram, CO diffusion capacity, as well as cardiac and renal function were all normal. He suffered from the skin change for 2 to 3 years before visiting our pediatric clinic when he was 7 years old. We gave him Dipyridamole, D-penicillamine, Colchicine, and Nifedipine. There was some remission of the scleroderma and Raynaud's phenomenon after our treatment.
