Variants of cutaneous LE including bullous SLE, Rowell syndrome, LE tumidus, chilblain LE, and lupus panniculitis are also reviewed. Listeners will learn to:

  • Appreciate the range of histopathologic findings in cutaneous LE.
  • Recognize the less specific cutaneous findings that raise the possibility of LE.
