Genital involvement is a rare manifestation in discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and there are few reports on vulvar clinical features. We describe a 41-year old Caucasian woman with bilateral vulvar DLE. Although vulvar lesions in lupus are probably more common than is realized, the present report is the first case of genital DLE documented in a female.
