Abstract
Morphea is an uncommon inflammatory and fibrosing disorder that has a polymorphous clinical presentation. We report two cases of morphea developing as an isotopic response after a preceding benign skin disease, accompanied by a review of the literature. This case series highlights the importance of return to care recommendations for benign skin conditions such lichen striatus and pigmented purpuric dermatoses due to the rare possibility of subsequent morphea development.
