      review of the literature.

AB  - A 2-year-old African American, Hispanic boy presented with well-defined, 
      violaceous, annular dermal plaques without scale over the upper extremities, 
      face, lower extremities, and buttocks. The clinical presentation and laboratory 
      studies were consistent with a diagnosis of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematous 
      (SCLE). SCLE presenting in childhood is exceedingly rare, with only eight cases 
      previously reported. It is important to clinically differentiate SCLE from other 
      eruptions more common to children, such as atopic dermatitis, urticarial drug 
      eruptions, and psoriasis vulgaris, because progression to systemic lupus 
      erythematous (SLE) may occur. SLE needs to be closely followed. We present the 
      first case (to our knowledge) of SCLE in a child of African American or Hispanic 
      descent and provide a table of other documented pediatric presentations of SCLE 
      for comparison.
