Overview

Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body's own defense system attacks otherwise healthy tissue. Clinically, it can affect multiple organ systems including the heart, skin, joints, kidneys and nervous system.

Classification

There are several types of lupus; in general, when the word lupus alone is used, reference is to systemic lupus erythematosus, as discussed in this article. Other types include:[1]

  • Chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus
    • Discoid lupus erythematosus, a skin disorder that causes a red, raised rash on the face and scalp. Discoid lupus occasionally (1–5%) develops into SLE.[2]
      • Localized discoid lupus erythematosus
      • Generalized discoid lupus erythematosus
      • Childhood discoid lupus erythematosus
    • Chilblain lupus erythematosus (Hutchinson)
    • Lupus erythematosus-lichen planus overlap syndrome
    • Lupus erythematosus panniculitis (Lupus erythematosus profundus)
    • Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus, which causes nonscarring skin lesions on patches of skin exposed to sunlight.[3]
    • Tumid lupus erythematosus
    • Verrucous lupus erythematosus (Hypertrophic lupus erythematosus)
  • Neonatal lupus erythematosus, a rare disease affecting babies born to women with SLE, Sjögren's syndrome, or sometimes no autoimmune disorder. It is theorized that maternal antibodies attack the fetus, causing skin rash; liver problems; low blood counts, which gradually fade; and heart block, leading to bradycardia.[3]
  • Childhood systemic lupus erythematosus, the pediatric variant of systemic lupus erythematosus.
  • Drug-induced lupus erythematosus, a drug-induced form of SLE; this type of lupus can occur equally in either gender.
  • Lupus nephritis, an inflammation of the kidneys caused by SLE.
  • Complement deficiency syndromes
