Generalized morphea and hypothyroidism: Case report of a rare association

Morphea is a localized form of scleroderma in which there is predominant skin involvement,with occasional involvement of subjacent muscles and usually spares the internal organs. thyroid dysfunction has been reported in systemic sclerosis but it has been rarely reported in morphea. there are few case reports of plaque-type morphea associated with autoimmune thyroiditis but generalized morphea with hypothyroidism has been rarely reported. we report a 55-year-old female with generalized morphea involving trunk and proximal limbs who revealed hypothyroidism on laboratory screening. due to the rarity of this association we were obliged to report the same.
