ABSTRACT
Solitary morphoea profunda (SMP) is an unusual form of scleroderma and is rarely mentioned in the literature. The back of the trunk is described as the commonest site of involvement by SMP. This disease has been recognized as a nonprogressive condition. We report three cases of SMP seen at our department within a 1-year period. Interestingly, all three patients were females and the lesions were situated on the right upper buttock. In one patient the lesion extended despite using topical tacrolimus but subsequently the lesion was kept under control with topical clobetasol propionate.
