Özet
Scleredema is a rare skin disease and clinically presents as diffuse, painless induration and thickening of the skin. Scleredema diabeticorum is usually slowly progressive and characterized by insidious onset and tends to be persistent. This type of scleredema primarily affects middle-aged and obese adults. Typically, affected area is the upper part of the body including the posterior neck, interscapular region and the chest. It usually develops in subjects with diabetes mellitus of long duration and poor metabolic control. We discussed a case of scleredema in a 54-year-old woman with a history of diabetes mellitus.
