Abstract
Among connective tissue diseases (CTDs), lupus is most common in childhood. Localized scleroderma is much more common than systemic sclerosis, and juvenile dermatomyositis is by far the most frequent form of idiopathic inflammatory myositis seen in the pediatric age group. These diseases should be distinguished from infections, malignancies, and mimics. The case vignettes described in this chapter discuss the presentations of children with suspected CTDs with take home messages at the end of each case.
