Localized scleroderma-like lesions after bone marrow transplantation in man.

Abstract
Localized scleroderma-like skin lesions which developed in two children, from 8 to 10 months after successful bone marrow transplantation for aplastic anaemia, showed histopathological features resembling those of scleroderma. This finding, like the animal models described in the literature, provides additional support for the auto-immune nature of scleroderma.
