Juvenile localized scleroderma: a large retrospective cohort study from a tertiary care center
This juvenile localized scleroderma cohort is one of the largest reported from a single center and demonstrated an increase in the use of systemic therapy following the publication of the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance juvenile localized scleroderma consensus treatment plan in 2012. Further studies on long-term treatment outcomes and therapeutic approaches utilized when first-line treatment failures occur are warranted.
