January 2025 in “Indian Dermatology Online Journal” A 27-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presented with chilblain lupus erythematosus (CHLE) and multi-melanonychia striata, a rare condition involving dark, vertical nail striations. Her symptoms included itchy, dark lesions on the face and extremities, painful toe lesions, diffuse hair loss, and polyarthralgia. The patient met the diagnostic criteria for SLE and CHLE, with dermoscopic and histopathological findings supporting the diagnosis. Treatment included oral prednisolone, hydroxychloroquine, topical clobetasol, and antihistamines, leading to improvement. The case highlights the rarity of multi-melanonychia striata in SLE and the importance of recognizing CHLE, which can mimic ordinary chilblains.
