The clinical profile and cutaneous lesions of 65 patients with lupus erythematosus (LE) are described. This included 28 discoid LE (13 disseminated, 15 localized), five subacute Cutaneous LE, and 32 systemic LE. The need to recognize a pigmented macular form constituting 25% of discoid LE is emphasized. Increased incidence of involvement of the lower lip in discoid LE and pigmentation in systemic LE is noted. Lupus band test was found to be highly sensitive; it was positive for lesional skin of all untreated patients with subacute cutaneous LE and systemic LE, it was, however, not useful on nonlesional skin.
