Note the extensive deposition of dense collagen in the dermis with virtual absence of appendages (e.g., hair follicles) and foci of inflammation (arrow). (C) The extensive subcutaneous fibrosis has virtually immobilized the fingers, creating a clawlike flexion deformity. Loss of blood supply has led to cutaneous ulcerations.
