  Author(s): Romashkina Anastasia Sergeevna
  
  Introduction & Objectives: Acrodermatitis Chronica Atrophicans (ACA) is a skin lesion in the late disseminated stage of Lyme disease. ACA occurs in the form of a classic (characterized by lesions of the extremities with the form of atrophy and thinning of the skin as “parchment paper”), scleroderma-like (represented by skin tightening) forms and fibrous nodes. Unfortunately, localized scleroderma is often taken for the classical and scleroderma-like form, which leads to the absence of path genetically substantiated treatment. The aim of the study: to determine criteria for the differential diagnosis of ACA and localized scleroderma in order to prescribe treatment and determine patient management tactics. Materials & Methods: 280 patients with a diagnosis of localized scleroderma aged 28 to 7.. View More»
