| dc.description.abstract | Abstract 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. Keywords: Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), Dermoscopy | |
