Lúpus eritematoso cutâneo crônico (LECC) é caracterizado pela presença de placas cutâneas circunscritas apresentando graus variados de edema, eritema, descamação, tamponamento e atrofia folicular. Apresenta-se mais comumente como placas discoides envolvendo face, orelhas e couro cabeludo, mas pode ser amplamente disseminada ou acometer predominantemente extremidades (lúpus Chilblain) ou a gordura subcutânea (paniculite lúpica). Pode causar desfiguração acentuada com cicatrizes faciais proeminentes e perda de cabelo permanente. A maioria dos pacientes permanece com boa saúde, mas 5-10% podem desenvolver lúpus eritematoso sistêmico. A fotossensibilidade é menos evidente do que no lúpus eritematoso cutâneo subagudo. | |||

Chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LE) is characterised by the presence of circumscribed cutaneous plaques showing varying degrees of oedema, erythema, scaling, follicular plugging and atrophy. It most commonly presents as discoid plaques involving the face, ears and scalp but can be widely disseminated or may affect predominantly the extremities (chilblain LE) or subcutaneous fat (lupus panniculitis). It can cause marked disfigurement with prominent facial scarring and permanent hair loss. Most patients remain otherwise in good health but 5-10% may develop systemic lupus erythematosus. Photosensitivity is less apparent than in subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus. | |||
