Abstract
The onset of these lesions is often difficult to establish, since they are usually unnoticeable at first. When confronted with extensive CTN, the main differential diagnoses are eosinophilic fasciitis and morphea, and these must be ruled out by skin biopsy. CTN is associated with osteopoikilosis in Buschke-Ollendorf syndrome. Skeletal lesions are asymptomatic and are detected by means of iterative X-ray. Their management comprises symptomatic care.
