What Conditions Are Affiliated with Rheumatoid Arthritis?

摘要

This rash erupted on the upper body of a 58-year-old woman in late August. It was mildly pruritic and non-tender. The patient had not started any new medications and was not taking photosensitizing drugs. She had Sjogren syndrome; the rest of her history was non-contributory. Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) was diagnosed. SCLE typically affects white women aged 30 to 40 years.1 It presents as nonindurated, nonscarring, erythematous plaques with or without a fine scale that may progress into a diffuse, widespread, papulosquamous or annular lesion with central hypopigmentation or telangiectasia.
