Abstract

Children with rheumatic disease (N = 250) were examined for shallow facial scars similar to those described in drug-induced pseudoporphyria. Users of a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug were 2.4 times as likely as nonusers to have four or more facial scars; this relative risk was increased to 6.0 in users of naproxen.
