    Notes: Summary Two patients with a scleroderma-like disorder induced by epoxy resins were reported from the Department of Dermatology, Gunma University School of Medicine, Japan in 1980. Here, we describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics of these patients after 17 years' follow-up from 1976 to 1993. Their systemic manifestations and indurated sclerotic skin changes disappeared within 5 years. No internal organ involvement has developed during the period of follow-up. On routine laboratory tests, no abnormalities have been found in the peripheral blood or in the blood chemistry or serology. Histological examination revealed atrophy of the dermis and restoration of the normal pattern of fine collagen bundles, when compared ulth the previous skin biopsy specimens. This scleroderma-like disorder induced by epoxy resins is considered to be different from systemic sclerosis: it has an acute onset and a fairly good prognosis, and does not show involvement of the internal organs.

    Notes: We report a 17-year-old Japanese girl with typical clinical features of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). She had initially been diagnosed as suffering from systemic sclerosis because her skin became sclerotic at the age of 21 months, and there was no apparent blister formation. She subsequently developed severe dystrophic skin changes. However, there was histological evidence of subepidermal cleavage, diminished basement membrane zone immunohistochemical reactivity to anti-type VII collagen monoclonal antibody, and markedly decreased numbers of anchoring fibrils on electron microscopy. Although both the clinical and laboratory findings support a diagnosis of RDEB, we cannot exclude the possibility that our patient might represent a new clinical entity.
