title: Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus in Iceland.
abstract: Identification of patients with subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) in Iceland was performed by means of a survey based on the histopathologic or immunofluorescent diagnosis of lupus erythematosus. Respondents underwent serologic studies, gave histories, and, dependent upon the latter, were examined. The resultant proportional rate of patients with SCLE approached 10% of all lupus erythematosus cases.
