Bilateral periorbital oedema revealed as systemic lupus erythematosus in a young male.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune connective tissue disorder that has well established cutaneous features and typically affects women. However, isolated bilateral periorbital involvement is a rare clinical presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus, which may often delay the diagnosis and treatment. We report such a case in a 20-year-old male.
