Abstract
Lupus panniculitis is an infrequent form of systemic lupus erythematosus. The relapsing nature of skin lesions can make the treatment more challenging. We report a case of 6-year-old female child with systemic lupus panniculitis. The child presented with wounds all over the body initially notedover the scalp and axilla region. The child was managed with steroids, anti-malarials and immunosuppressants including vitamin supplements. Ensuring the psychological wellbeing of the child is also a considered constituent in the care plan. Medication non-adherence of the patient was one of the boundaries of the treatment.
