Discoid Lupus Erythematosus Presenting With Disfiguring Acneiform Plaques: A Diagnostic Challenge.
2021
ABSTRACT Hypertrophic and acneiform forms are very rare variants of discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), which can suppose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We present a South American woman with facial disfiguring lesions of 7 years of evolution with clinical and histopathological characteristic of both hypertrophic and acneiform DLE. No criteria for systemic lupus erythematosus were present in the patient. To the best of our knowledge, no patients with concomitant hypertrophic and acneiform DLE have been previously reported in the literature.
