ABSTRACT
Erythematosus lupus is an inflammatory dermatosis of chronic, acute or subacute
nature that occurs in outbreaks. It can affect all the body organs, but mainly the
skin. Here are two patients with plaque-form lesions located in the internal middle
area of the free inferior palpebral border, thick contours, central depression with
scabby bottom and loss of eyelash. Taking into account the location, the extension of the lesion, personal histories and application of previous treatment without
improved clinical picture, it was decided to perform incisional biopsy for better
examination. The anatomopathological results showed the diagnosis of palpebral
discoid lupus. The recovery of the patient was satisfactory after the medical
treatment, with no relapse during the first follow-up year.
