Abstract

Discoid Lupus Erythematosus (DLE) is a benign inammatory disorder of the skin that most frequently involves the face and scalp. It is characterized by asymptomatic, well dened, red, scaly patches of variable size, which heal with atrophy, scarring and pigmentary changes. Bowen's disease is a squamous cell carcinoma in situ of unknown etiology that occurs in both sun exposed and covered areas. It presents as well circumscribed, round to oval, pink or dark red scaly patches which may become hyperkeratotic, crusted or ulcerated.
