Peripheral nervous system (PNS) involvement is rare in systemic sclerosis (SSc), usually restricted to peripheral nerve entrapment. To our knowledge, only one case of scleroderma with brachial plexus involvement has been reported previously. We report here on a 61-year-old woman with past history of limited cutaneous SSc who developed motor deficiency in the left arm concomitant with diffuse edematous scleroderma without evidence for trauma or compression of the brachial plexus. After six months intravenous pulse cyclophosphamide therapy, dramatic improvement of skin and neurological involvement was observed.
