Popis:	Leg ulcers occur in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) owing to vasculitis, antiphospholipid antibodies, and, rarely, pyoderma gangrenosum or calcinosis cutis. We report the unusual case of a 34-year-old woman with chronic SLE without antiphospholipid antibodies, who had a leg ulceration and bone infarction with dystrophic soft tissue calcification throughout the lower extremities.
