چکیده
EGR: erythema gyratum repens SLE: systemic lupus erythematosus INTRODUCTION Bullous lupus erythematosus is an autoantibodymediated subepidermal blistering disease that occurs in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Erythema gyratum repens (EGR) is a clinical diagnosis characterized by a wood grain pattern of centrifugally migrating erythematous plaques with fine leading scale. Although most cases of EGR are associated with underlying malignancy, several nonparaneoplastic-associated cases of EGR have been reported. Here, we report on a patient with bullous lupus erythematosus presenting in an EGR pattern.
