| 520 | |a Introduction: Morphea is a rare fibrosing disorder of the skin and underlying tissues. Deep morphea involves the deep dermis, subcutis, fascia, muscle, and bone. The above structures may be involved independently or in combination. Case report: We describe a case of deep morphea presenting as muscle weakness, independent of skin lesions, in a child with generalized morphea.
