RESUMEN
Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) antagonists are used in the treatment of numerous autoimmune conditions. Adalimumab is the first monoclonal antibody to TNF-α and is used to treat juvenile idiopathic arthritis. A growing body of literature associates anti-TNF-α therapies with several adverse dermatologic manifestations, including drug-induced lupus erythematosus (LE). We describe a case of cutaneous LE in a 16-year-old girl treated with adalimumab for juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The temporal association between her presenting symptoms and adalimumab initiation and gradual improvement after stopping biologic therapy suggest adalimumab-induced cutaneous LE. With increasing use of anti-TNF therapies in children, the potential for drug-induced LE should not be overlooked.
