research Multi-Melanonychia Striata in a Case of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with Concomitant Chilblain Lupus
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.
