摘要
Rowell s syndrome (RS) is a rare presentation of lupus erythe- matosus (LE) with erythema multiforme-like lesions associated with antinuclear, anti-La (SS-B)/anti-Ro (SS-A) antibodies and rheumatoid factor (RF) positivity. This syndrome is suggested to be a different variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus by some authors in literature. Here we present a 64-year-old woman with LE and a 51-year-old woman with LE and Sj¨ ogren syndrome (SS) who had erythema multiforme-like eruptions and discuss the coexistence of lupus erythematosus and erythema multiforme.
Rowell＇s syndrome （RS） is a rare presentation of lupus erythe- matosus （LE） with erythema muhiforme-like lesions associated with antinuclear, anti-La （SS-B）/anti-Ro （SS-A） antibodies and rheumatoid factor （RF） positivity. This syndrome is suggested to be a different variant of cutaneous lupus erythematosus by some authors in literature. Here we present a 64-year-old woman with LE and a 51-year-old woman with LE and Sjogren syndrome （SS） who had erythema multiforme-like eruptions and discuss the coexistence of lupus erythematosus and erythema muhiforme.
