[Lupus erythematodesus profundus].
A 4 year old boy with lupus panniculitis since the third month is presented. Typical discoid lupus erythematosus lesions were also present. There were no signs of systemic involvement. Lupus panniculitis is an uncommon subtype of cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Our case is very unusual as the lesions developed already 3 month after birth. Clinical manifestation, therapy and histopathology of lupus panniculitis are discussed.
