Case 2:
A 38- year-old female presented to our dermatology clinic with the chief complaint of an old single plaque on her left ear since 9 years ago. She had been receiving topical treatment but the lesion had recurred several times in the exact same spot. She had no systemic symptoms and had not received systemic treatments previously. On physical examination, an erythematous scaly lesion was noted on the concha of her left ear (Figure 4). Physical examination of other organs was completely normal. She denied having any similar lesions on other parts of her body. She was first diagnosed with DLE, but the histopathologic findings in the biopsy did not support DLE and were instead consistent with psoriasis (figure 5A-B).
