The history of lupus erythematosus.
The history of lupus can be divided into the classical period which saw the description of the cutaneous disorder, the neoclassical period which saw the description of the systemic or disseminated manifestations of lupus, and the modern period which was heralded by the discovery of the lupus erythematosus cell in 1948.
