title: [Disseminated lupus erythematosus induced by carbamazepine (Tegretol)].
abstract: A 20-year-old man is described with drug-induced lupus erythematosus (DILE) induced by carbamazepine prescribed for epilepsy. The symptoms consisted mainly of arthritis and largely disappeared when carbamazepine was replaced by oxcarbazepine. With a simple decision scheme based on serological findings, differentiation between (idiopathic) systemic lupus erythematosus and DILE is possible.
