Abstract

DLE/CCLE is a benign disorder of skin most frequently involving the face, characterized by well defined red scaly plaques of variable sizes that heal with atrophy, scarring and pigmentary changes. The histology is characteristic. Squamous cell carcinoma can rarely arise within a longstanding DLE plaque in the skin particularly over scalp, ears , lips and nose . It presents as an enlarging warty growth or ulcer. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma which developed on lesion of discoid lupus erythematosus within a short period of time.
