Solitary morphea profunda (SMP) is a variant of localized scleroderma (LS). We report the case of a 50-year-old white woman with a history of trauma sustained in an automobile accident who presented with SMP on the right upper arm. We also provide a review of the classification, epidemiology, etiology, diagnostic studies, pathogenesis, physical findings, histopathology, treatment, and prognosis of SMP, along with other important details pertaining to the disease. We also provide a brief overview of LS and morphea profunda (MP).
