title: [Anetoderma and lupus erythematosus. Study of 2 cases].
abstract: Two cases of anetoderma and lupus erythematosus (LE) were studied. The first one showed secondary anetoderma and subacute LE. There was leucocytoplastic angitis in involved skin besides generalized lacking of elastic fibers (EF). The second one is a Schweninger Buzzi anetoderma with face and scalp lesions of LE tumidus. In new lesions angitis and immunoglobulin deposits of EF were seen. Another cases, pathogenic and characteristics of this unusual association were analyzed we pointed out: 1) leucocytoplastic angitis presence; 2) immunoglobulin deposits on EF finding; 3) angitis seems to play a principal rol in elastic fibers disappearance.
