ABSTRACT
Lupoid sclerosis (LS) is a polemic entity. LS comprises features of both systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Diagnostic criteria are a matter of debate, as well as the role of antinuclear and antiphospholipid antibodies. We here report 5 cases whereby LS could be postulated. Clinical and laboratory findings are discussed, and an updating of the literature on LS is brought about.
RESUMO
A esclerose lupóide é uma entidade polêmica. A afecção engloba achados de ambos lúpus eritematoso sistêmico e esclerose múltipla. Os critérios diagnósticos são matéria de debate, assim como o papel de anticorpos antinucleares e antifosfolípides. Reportamos aqui cinco casos nos quais o diagnóstico de esclerose lupóide foi postulado. Os achados clínicos e laboratoriais são discutidos, e uma atualização da literatura acerca da esclerose lupóide é efetuada.
