“…The occurrence of clinical and histopathological features of both chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus and morphea in the same lesion was first described by Umbert and Winkelmann in 1978 4 . Since then, only two other cases have been reported based on the results of a Medline search 5,6 . All the cases previously described were female (Table 1).…”

“…While CCLE is usually associated with the development of coin‐shaped or disk‐like discoid lesions, development of lesions with linear distribution is unusual 3 . The coexistence of CCLE and localized scleroderma in the same lesion with linear distribution is exceedingly rare and has only been reported in a few patients 4–6 . The term “sclerodermiform linear lupus erythematosus” has been suggested 4 …”

“…Umbert and Winkelmann[9] Marzano et al .,[10] and Julià et al . [11] also reported such association but lesions were on the arms rather than over face. All cases were treated with oral antimalarials and topical steroids with partial improvement.…”

“…2 Two similar cases in which these two pathologies with a linear pattern of involvement overlapped have been described previously. 3 Linear involvement in cutaneous LE is rare and may present as LDLE, deep LE, tumid LE or SCLE. 2 A case of linear bullous LE has been described in a patient with SLE.…”

“…5,6,12 The cells arising from these mosaicisms express neoantigens capable of eliciting local immune response. 3 The trigger for the onset of the disease may be trauma, primary irritation or exogenous agents such as ultraviolet light, drugs, pesticides, heavy metals or other elements. 2,14 The apoptosis of keratinocytes has been indicated as a key event in triggering cutaneous lupus lesions through various apoptotic pathways such as p53, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and Fas/FasL.…”
