[Paraneoplastic subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus].

The genesis of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) is multifactorial and includes idiopathic, drug-related and paraneoplastic etiologies. This article reports the case of a 70-year-old female patient with paraneoplastic SCLE in whom a lung adenocarcinoma was detected during the extended examination. A paraneoplastic SCLE should be considered when a patient with SCLE presents with lesions in regions of the skin not exposed to sunlight and beginning B symptoms.
