Abstract
Buschke scleredema is a rare disease characterized by sclerotic edema that affects the upper part of the trunk and can extend to the limbs. It occurs at any age. It can be accompanied by extracutaneous damage. Three types can be distinguished within this pathology: type I appears suddenly secondary to an infection. Type II develops chronically outside of an infectious and diabetic context associated with monoclonal gammopathy. Type III has been called diabetic scleredema.
