All felt that their safety was in his hands and that his careful watch and strict enforcement of the quarantine would result in our exemption from the scourge. He was obeyed implicitly, and for a time we escaped the fever, but the "breakbone" singled us out one by one, and several times alarming symptoms of the dreaded yellow fever appeared.

Besides this, yellow fever and scarlatina are two of the gravest maladies on the catalogues of the nosologists, and produce, everywhere, a serious mortality when they prevail. But nobody dies of dengue or breakbone; no, not one in one thousand, taken promiscuously, and under all circumstances of discomfort or mal-treatment. As to its relations with malaria and malarious diseases, it suffices to remark that it is not produced, nor has I been known to spread, in the worst malarious localities.

From French en coup de sabre (literally “by/in a strike of the sword”), so-called because of its resemblance to the scar of a sabre wound.

bor

The patient is an unusual example of bilateral scleroderma en coup de sabre with distortion of both upper eyelids, and ocular complications.

1962, Harry Maximilian Robinson, Patient presentations of the 12th International Congress of Dermatology:

The clinical picture was suggestive of a combination of scleroderma en coup de sabre and facial hemiatrophy (Parry-Romberg syndrome).
Distinction between Parry-Romberg syndrome and linear scleroderma with facial atrophy can be quite difficult and it has been postulated that en coup de sabre type may actually be a forme fruste of progressive facial hemiatrophy.

1980, Neurology, India, Neurological Society of India:

Two out of 7 patients with scleroderma en coup de sabre also had morphea elsewhere. These findings strongly favor a close relationship between PFH and scleroderma.

Linear scleroderma en coup de sabre is a particular form of linear scleroderma that may not truly be related to the other forms.

2009, Thomas J.A. Lehman, A Clinician's Guide to Rheumatic Diseases in Children, Oxford University Press, →ISBN:

The en coup de sabre variety probably represents a more superficial form of progressive facial hemiatrophy (the Parry–Romberg syndrome), a condition of slowly progressive atrophy of the soft tissue of half of the face with or without associated dermal sclerosis.

2011, Amy S. Paller, Anthony J. Mancini, Hurwitz Clinical Pediatric Dermatology E-Book: A Textbook of Skin Disorders of Childhood and Adolescence, Elsevier Health Sciences, →ISBN, page 520:
