lupus erythematosus, cutaneous


A form of lupus erythematosus in which the skin may be the only organ involved or in which skin involvement precedes the spread into other body systems. It has been classified into three forms - acute (= lupus erythematosus, systemic with skin lesions), subacute, and chronic (= lupus erythematosus, discoid).
