Segmental stiff skin syndrome (SSS): Clinical case and a brief review.
2021
Stiff skin syndrome (SSS) is a rare, scleroderma-like condition that is commonly characterised by stony hard skin and limited joint mobility, in the absence of visceral involvement or immunologic abnormalities. Depending on the distribution of the disease, this disorder can be further categorised into classic (widespread) SSS or its newly described segmental variant. Additional features of this syndrome may include hypertrichosis, lipodystrophy, dysmetria and scoliosis. In this report, we present the case of a patient with segmental SSS and we briefly review the current literature about the topic.
