ABSTRACT
Child onset morphea is usually characterized by linear lesions, more frequently located in one limb or in the facial region, more prevalent in white female children. We report the case of a 11year-old male child without additional morbidity, with atrophic and hyperpigmented flat plaque lesions, located in the inner and outer side of the lower third part of both legs. The lesions were pathologically confirmed as superficial morphea.
