Juvenile localized scleroderma (JLS) includes several subtypes including plaque morphea, linear
scleroderma
and the en coup de sabre type which affects face and head. The latter variety may involve the eye and the brain with various appearance and clinical complications.We describe the case of a 6-year-old boy who presented partial complex seizures, with
