Twenty cases of children with Sclerema observed at a Pediatric Service during five years are presented.

In the children observed the most frequent finding was represented by sepsis, some of them with disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome, diarrhoea with dehydration. The therapy applied, fundamentally was based on parenteral solutions, antibiotics and corticoids, was directed by those diseases and not by the presence of sclerema, which however appeared influenced by the supply of the latterly mentioned medicaments. Microscopic disturbances are discussed too, and a reference is made to the incriminabea pathogenic mechanisms.
