Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We present a 14-year-old girl with a nine-year history of progressive subcutaneous atrophy on the right side of the face, which is consistent with a diagnosis of Parry-Romberg syndrome. The onset of the atrophy was heralded by the development of a morpheaform plaque on the right temple. This case highlights the substantial of overlap of Parry-Romberg syndrome and morphea.
