Lupus erythematosus (LE) with erythema multiforme-like lesions with its characteristic serological picture had been described in 1963. We report a 33-year-old married male who presented with skin lesions of various morphology on different body parts since four months. The skin lesions ranged from lupus-specific tumid LE to Rowell's syndrome and discoid LE. Histopathology of skin biopsy from all representative sites showed different forms of lupus erythematosus. Antinuclear and anti-double-stranded DNA was positive; however, serology for anti-SSA and anti-SSB was negative. There were no symptoms specific for organ involvement. It is unusual to document various morphological types in a single patient of lupus erythematosus. We document this case as all forms of cutaneous LE including Rowell's syndrome were evident in a single male patient. |
