Abstract

Morphea, or localized scleroderma, can at times constitute a severely disabling and aggressive disease with no single therapy proven to be curative or the standard of care. Herein, we report the case of a patient with severe disabling generalized deep morphea who showed a marked clinical response to treatment with extracorporeal photochemotherapy (ECP).
