| discoid l. erythematosus |
a chronic form of cutaneous lupus erythematosus in which the skin lesions mimic those of the systemic form but systemic signs are rare, although multisystem manifestations may develop after many years. It is characterized by discoid skin plaques showing varying degrees of edema, erythema, scaliness, follicular plugging, and skin atrophy surrounded by an elevated erythematous border typically involving the face and scalp, but widespread dissemination may occur. See also l. erythematosus profundus and hypertrophic l. erythematosus.
