Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female subjects ≥ 5 years of age with well phenotyped LLS
- Affecting their head and / or face "termed " en coup de sabre " type LLS or Hemiatrophia faciei or Parry-Romberg syndrome, with or without therapy
- Affecting any site of the body except the head or face, with or without therapy
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with signs of systemic scleroderma
- Patients with localized scleroderma (morphea) other than the linear type ("plaque-type", "morphea profunda", "generalized morphea") Patients with diagnosed gadolinium induced scleroderma Patients with post-irradiation scleroderma Patients with missing consent
