Linear cutaneous lupus erythematosus in association with ipsilateral submandibular myoepithelial sialadenitis

Abstract

We present the case of a young Caucasian female with a several years' history of left-sided submandibular gland sialadenitis in association with linear unilateral cutaneous lupus erythematosus apparently following the lines of Blaschko. The affected gland was excised and the cutaneous lupus erythematosus was improved considerably by oral Dapsone.
