Abstract


Abstract : Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS) and En Coup de

sporadically in literature. We report a 30 year old female
patient who presented with a purplish pigmented sclerotic
plaque on the right side of face and scalp with obvious facial
asymmetry. Additionally she had facial muscle tightness,
migraine and myopia in the right eye. A provisional diagnosis
of Parry-Romberg syndrome with En Coup de Sabre of
morphoea was made.
