Prognostic Value of Trichoscopy in Patients With Systemic Scleroderma
* Few data are available on scalp involvement in systemic scleroderma. * Few data are available on the association between scalp abnormalities and features of systemic scleroderma * Trichoscopy is a simple, reproducible, noninvasive examination that is part of the examination of hairy areas in routine dermatologic practice * There is a lack of simple, noninvasive examinations to evaluate patients with systemic scleroderma
The objective will be to evaluate the contribution of trichoscopy in the evaluation of patients with systemic scleroderma
