title: [Subacute lupus erythematosus of the skin--clinical aspects and laboratory findings].
abstract: The data of 20 patients with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) were evaluated according to clinical and laboratory criteria. We found the following laboratory deviations: elevated BSR, leucopenia, anti-dsDNA, anti-SSA/Ro and anti-SSB/La antibodies, positive LE cells, and elevated levels of IgE and immune complex. Aside from the characteristic skin eruptions in SCLE, the patients showed arthralgia, myalgia, and pronounced photosensitivity.
  
  
  METHODS
  corticoids, chloroquine, and light protection. Regular follow-up examinations are extremely important in these patients.
