Background: Lupus erythematosus panniculitis (LEp) is an uncommon but distinctive subset of lupus erythematosus (LE). It may develop in patients with discoid or systemic LE or may occur as an isolated phenomenon. Case Report: We describe a case of LEp affecting unusual sites: the parotid gland, eyelid, and scalp. Subsequently, the patient progressed to antinuclear antibody–negative systemic LE. Contexte: Le lupus érythémateux compliqué d'une panniculite (LEp) est une forme rare mais particulière de lupus érythémateux (LE). Il peut se manifester dans le contexte du LE discoïde ou du LE disséminé, ou encore n'être qu'un phénomène isolé. Exposé de cas: Il sera question ici d'un cas de LEp touchant des sièges inhabituels: la glande parotide, les paupières, et le cuir chevelu. L'état du patient a évolué, par la suite, vers un LE disséminé négatif à l'égard des anticorps antinucléaires.

Mice of the inbred NZB strain develop a spontaneous disease characterized by autoimmune hemolytic anemia, positive lupus erythematosus cell tests and antinuclear antibodies and nephritis. This disease is analogous to human systemic lupus erythematosus. In ultrastructural studies of the glomerular lesion in NZB mice, intraglomerular dense deposits in mesangial, subepithelial and subendothelial locations were described. In common with the findings in many examples of human and experimental nephritis, including many cases of human lupus nephritis, these deposits were amorphous or slightly granular in appearance with no definable substructure.We have recently observed structured deposits in the glomeruli of NZB mice. They were uncommon and were found in older animals with severe glomerular lesions by morphologic criteria. They were seen most commonly as extracellular elements in subendothelial and mesangial regions. The deposits ranged up to 3 microns in greatest dimension and were often adjacent to deposits of lipid-like round particles of 30 to 250 millimicrons in diameter and with amorphous dense deposits.
