Ann Season 4 Episode 115

Today’s guest is Dr. Kathryn Torok, a pediatric rheumatologist at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, where she directs the Pediatric Craniofacial Scleroderma Clinic. Scleroderma in children is rare, about five in 100,000 develop localized disease, and only about one in a million develop systemic disease. It's crucial to treat to target as early as possible. I learned so much from Dr. Torok about how scleroderma affects children and the best approaches to care.
