Abstract |
A 47-year-old woman presented with a long-standing history of an erythema multiforme-like eruption in association with lupus erythematosus. Unusual laboratory and immunologic findings were consistent with a diagnosis of Rowell's syndrome, which includes lupus erythematosus in association with erythema multiforme-like skin lesions, a speckled antinu-clear antibody pattern, and a positive rheumatoid factor. We believe that our patient meets the criteria for this rarely reported entity.
