Abstract:
Bullous systemic lupus erythematosus (bullous SLE) is uncommon; distinctive clinical variant of SLE that is characterized by tense vesicles and bullae filled with fluid that occurs on either erythematous or normal skin. Although bullous SLE can accompany erythematous plaque with annular configuration, urticarial papules, and erythema multiforme (EM)-like lesions initially, there is no report of EM-like lesions as an initial sign of bullous SLE in the Korean literatures. Herein, we describe 31-year-old women with bullous SLE that showed EM-like skin lesions as the initial sign.
