description | Lupus erythematosus is a multiorgan disorder with a wide variance of clinical presentations. Disease processes are generally divided into systemic or cutaneous categories, with cutaneous findings being further subdivided into acute, subacute, and chronic variants. The chronic form of cutaneous lupus itself has multiple subsets. We present the case of a young woman who developed two forms of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CCLE) and, eventually, progressive systemic symptoms. |
