Article Synopsis
- Rowell Syndrome is a rare condition that combines features of erythema exudativum multiforme (EEM) and lupus erythematosus (LE).
- The new diagnostic criteria include three major criteria (different types of LE, EEM-like skin lesions, and a specific antibody pattern) and several minor criteria (chilblains and certain positive antibody tests).
- Treatment options are similar to those for EEM and LE, often showing positive results with medications like oral cortisone and azathioprine, and the presented case showed good improvement with topical treatments following a herpes infection and sun exposure.
