ABSTRACT
A 58-year-old female with breast cancer, who had undergone breast conserving surgery and radiotherapy, presented with a 7-month history of erythematous to brown, indurated plaque confined to the previous radiation field. The patient had no constitutional symptoms. A skin biopsy showed thickened, hyalinized collagen bundles in the dermis, which was consistent with morphea. Postirradiation morphea is a rare complication of radiotherapy. The clinical feature of postirradiation morphea may be similar to cellulitis or cutaneous metastasis, and the diagnosis of this disease is given histopathologically. We present a case of postirradiation morphea and a review of the literature.
