Modern Rheumatology, 07/02/09
Nishiyama M et al. - The authors report here the case of a 48-year-old Japanese woman showing plaque-forming scattered indurative papules on her face, buttock and extremities. Histological examination revealed a large amount of interstitial mucin deposition, and negative direct immunofluorescence was observed. The provocative phototesting reproduced the skin lesion, and the patient was diagnosed with lupus erythematosus tumidus (LET).
