  • Title: Cutaneous mucinosis associated with lupus erythematosus.
    Author: Fowler JF, Callen JP.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1984 Jun; 11(3):380-3. PubMed ID: 6737378.
    Abstract:
    A 48-year-old woman with a 17-year history of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presented with an exacerbation of cutaneous lupus manifested as discoid LE (DLE). In addition to the typical DLE lesions, she had multiple flesh colored nodules scattered over the trunk and extremities on both exposed and nonexposed surfaces. The association of mucinous deposits and SLE has been reported within lesions of SLE and occasionally in other cutaneous lesions. This case represents a distinct variant of cutaneous mucinosis which was associated with SLE.
