Skin Involvement is seen in nearly 76 per cent of Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, but bullous lesion however accounts for less than one per cent of cutaneous manifestation of lupus erythematosus. A 21-year-old female presented with fever, polyarthalgia and vesicobullous skin lesion and acute renal failure. Clinico-pathological evaluation imparted that she was having bullous systemic lupus erythematosus (BSLE) with lupus nephritis. She was put on rituximab after initial resuscitation. She responded dramatically with resolution of skin lesion and recovery from acute renal failure. She was followed up for one year without complication with stable disease course.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
