[Papular mucinosis associated with lupus erythematosus. A case presentation and review of the literature].
A 36-year-old woman presented with a widespread papulonodular eruption followed by cutaneous and systemic manifestations of lupus erythematosus. Both conditions, papular mucinosis and lupus erythematosus were investigated by histopathology, immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Referring to seven other cases reported in the literature, the possible relationship between lupus erythematosus and cutaneous mucinosis is discussed. It seemed that the cutaneous deposits of mucine were secondary to lupus erythematosus and not a simultaneous occurrence of the two diseases.
