Nodular morphea keloidal type: A rare case with paradigmatic histopathology significantly accompanied by a flawless surgical scar

Accordingly, the association of such outgrowths with systemic sclerosis is designated as nodular scleroderma. Sometimes these lesions appear as firm, erythematous and irregularly curvy plaques resembling keloids or hypertrophic scars, thus characterizing keloidal morphea or keloidal scleroderma.
