AbstractIntroduction. Multiple eruptive dermatofibromas are described in association with different immune-mediated conditions like SLE, pemphigus, myasthenia gravis, HIV infection, organ transplantation, acute myeloid leukemia, ulcerative colitis, atopic dermatitis and immunosuppressive therapy. Case Report. A forty-five year-old woman presented at our Department with over 20 dermatofibromas on her trunk and extremities developed spontaneously over the last 3 years, out of which more than 10 lesions developed over the previous year. The patient was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus before the onset of lesions and was treated with different immunomodulatory agents (corticosteroids, methotrexate, antimalarials, azathioprine, belimumab, anti IL-6 antibody). Dermoscopy of different lesions revealed different dermatoscopic patterns without pattern predominance. A biopsy specimen of one lesion confirmed the diagnosis. Conclusion. There are few cases reports describing a possible link between systemic lupus erythematosus and multiple dermatofibromas. The mechanism is still unknown but is believed to be due to the altered immunity in immune-mediated diseases.

Lupus Érythémateux Systémique

L’association lupus érythémateux systémique et psoriasis est rarement rapportée dans la littérature. Elle pose des problèmes pathogéniques et thérapeutiques spécifiques. Nous rapportons l’observation d’une patiente de 48 ans présentant un psoriasis avec un rhumatisme psoriasique qui sont antérieurs au diagnostic du LES, de bonne évolution sous Méthotrexate. Particulièrement, notre observation illustre l’absence d’aggravation du psoriasis sous Hydroxy chloroquine.

Mechanisms responsible for anemia in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can be immune or non-immune. A 27-year-old previously healthy woman was admitted with echymotic patches over the lower limbs for six months, multiple joint pain and fatigue for 2 months. She had severe pallor and multiple echymotic patches over the lower limbs. She was diagnosed with SLE with pernicious anemia and iron deficiency anemia. The rare association of SLE with pernicious anemia was reported previously in few patients. Treatment of SLE along with B12 supplementation is necessary for such patients. Since etiology for anemia in SLE can be of various kinds, a detailed workup for identifying the underlying mechanism is necessary.
