Morphea with Oral Mucosa Involvement and Unilateral Nevoid Telangiectasia as an Early Presentation of Morphea: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Oral mucosal involvement in patients with morphea is quite rare. Unilateral nevoid telangiectasia is a rare vascular dermatosis characterized by unilateral telangiectasia distributed in a dermatomal pattern, especially on the upper trunk and extremities. We describe a case of a 10-year-old female patient that presents with morphea on her left chin and upper lip extending to the inner oral mucosa as well as a unilateral nevoid telangiectasia on her left cheek as an early presentation of localized scleroderma. This case is significant as it demonstrates a striking clinical presentation of morphea and an interesting early presentation of morphea as a unilateral nevoid telangiectasia that improved after treatment with oral methotrexate and prednisone.
