Morphea and facial capillary malformations (port-wine stains) are distinct conditions that can affect the pediatric population. Early localized morphea mimicking a capillary malformation is an uncommon clinical presentation. We present two new cases of girls, aged 2 and 3 years, who presented with erythematous patches, initially diagnosed as capillary malformations, which were later diagnosed as morphea. We also performed a literature review, yielding 12 additional cases that underscore that the unusual presentation of morphea may delay correct diagnosis. Although early management of morphea reduces long-term sequelae, it is important to delay laser treatment for selected acquired vascular malformations, until the diagnosis of morphea is excluded.
