Abstract
Rowell's syndrome is described as an association between (systemic or cutaneous) lupus erythematosus and erythema multiforme. The presence of bullous lesions indicates the necessity of a careful diagnosis in order to discriminate Rowell's syndrome from bullous lesions of lupus or from an association with other bullous diseases. The authors describe a case of Rowell's syndrome and review some aspects of this clinical entity.
