“…Morphea, also called localized scleroderma of the skin, manifests classically as an indurated, annular plaque with a peripheral violaceous border (‘lilac ring’). Different presentations of morphea include the plaque, guttate, linear, segmental, generalized, keloidal and bullous types 1–3 . Recently, superficial morphea is being an increasingly recognized clinicopathological variant.…”

“…Different presentations of morphea include the plaque, guttate, linear, segmental, generalized, keloidal and bullous types. [1][2][3] Recently, superficial morphea is being an increasingly recognized clinicopathological variant. We, herein, report a 24-year-old woman with superficial morphea and psoriasis vulgaris since the age of 4 and 16 years, respectively, describe the clinical course over a 20-year follow-up period and review the significance of this association.…”

Superficial morphea: 20‐year follow up in a patient with concomitant psoriasis vulgaris

et al. 2009

Superficial morphea, a newly described variant of morphea, manifests clinically with hypopigmented or hyperpigmented patches that lack induration. The lesions show on biopsy dermal sclerosis in the superficial to mid-reticular dermis. So far, all cases reported in the literature were skin limited. In this report, we describe a 24-year-old female patient who developed at the age of 4 years plaques characteristic, both clinically and histologically, of superficial morphea. The patient developed later on psoriasis vulgaris. Although the association of scleroderma and psoriasis is rarely reported in the literature, most reports describe a progressive systemic course of scleroderma whenever the two diseases co-exist. This is the first report to describe superficial morphea in association with psoriasis and to provide a 20-year follow-up period during which the superficial morphea remained relatively stable with no evidence of systemic involvement.

“…Nodular morphea is a rare form of localized scleroderma with fewer than 50 cases reported. [1][2][3] It is clinically characterized by one or more raised lesions that usually occur in association with classic morphea, developing on the affected areas or on apparently normal skin. Similar abnormal growths can arise in the course of generalized scleroderma, thus distinguishing a form of the disease specified as nodular scleroderma.…”

“…Nodular morphea is a rare variant of localized scleroderma, clinically and histopathologically characterized by cutaneous nodules or plaques associated or superimposed to the flat lesions of classic morphea. [1][2][3] Accordingly, the association of such outgrowths with systemic sclerosis is designated as nodular scleroderma. [4][5][6] Sometimes these lesions appear as firm, erythematous and irregularly curvy plaques resembling keloids or hypertrophic scars, thus characterizing keloidal morphea or keloidal scleroderma.…”

“…Keloidal and nodular morphea are seldom reported variants characterized clinically by nodules within scleroatrophic lesions in the context of systemic or cutaneous scleroderma . While nodular morphea following a linear pattern has been very rarely described, no segmental cases of keloidal morphea have been reported to the best of our knowledge.…”
