Lupus Erythematosus is a multisystem disorder with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations ranging from cutaneous involvement to widespread systemic involvement. Squamous cell carcinoma formation in cutaneous lesions of LE is rare but had greater chances of metastases. Here, we report two cases, one of Discoid Lupus Erythematosus and other of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus complicated by development of squamous cell carcinoma over cutaneous lesions.

A 90 years female diagnosed as a case of Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) developed Squamous cell carcinoma from the lesions over a period of 5 years due to treatment gap and late follow up. Diagnosis was based on clinical aspects (erythematous, nodular and scanty bleeding), dermoscopic features and histopathological examination, the absence of systemic involvement and routine laboratory parameters, which registered all within normal range.SCC in a patient with DLE is rare in Nepalese patients. It is every essential to counsel the diagnosed cases of DLE and warn all patients about all the possible outcomes and compliance with medications should be ensured.Nepal Journal of Dermatology, Venereology & Leprology, Vol.14(1) 2016, pp.51-55
