Uterine mucinosis and vasculitis associated with lupus erythematous(AU)
The association of cutaneous papulonodular mucinosis with lupus erythematosus has long been recognized. Massive cutaneous deposits of mucin and periorbital mucinosis have also been reported in patients with lupus. Recently, a report was published of two cases of mucin deposits in the myometrium of patients with lupus, denominated "myxoidosis" by the authors. A case is presented of vasculitis and diffuse, predominately myometrial, mucinosis, in the uterus of a patient with lupus erythematosus. The term "mucinosis" and not "myxoidosis" is recommended, even when referring to the uterus, in order to unify the terminology of pathological findings that have similar histological and histochemical features to the cutaneous lesions found in lupus erythematosus(AU)
