Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus associated with breast carcinoma.
A case of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus associated with breast carcinoma is presented. The patient had not been aware of her malignant disease and had consulted us after her dermatosis developed. To date only one case of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus associated with malignancy has been described in the literature. The relationship between a dermatosis and a malignant internal disease is discussed.
