Scleredema adultorum of Buschke is a rare connective tissue disorder reported usually following streptococcal infection, influenza, measles, and mumps. This is a report of scleredema adultorum developing after streptococcal infection in an 10-year-old girl. The diagnosis was established by characteristic picture on skin biopsy using special stain. The patient had a benign course and responded to local emollients only.
