Morphea and Related Disorders is a comprehensive reference on morphea. The book covers the subject in 20 chapters. The book starts with a detailed introduction and history of the morphea and its various classifications systems. Next, the book progresses into epidemiology, predisposing factors and pathogenic mechanisms, followed by histopathology for morphea diagnosis and a detailed review of clinical presentations.
Subsequent chapters cover associated diseases and extracutaneous manifestations, medical investigations, treatment guidelines and special topics (Idiopathic atrophoderma of Pasini and Pierini, Linear atrophoderma of Moulin, Parry-Romberg syndrome, Lichen sclerosus, pediatric morphea and eosinophilic fasciitis).
