A case of drug-induced lupus erythematosus in an 85-year-old woman is presented associated with treatment with the beta-blocker

bisoprolol. In terms of clinical and laboratory features, this disease completely mimics idiopathic SLE; however, it is usually more common

in elderly patients and affects men and women equally. The article places emphasis on the histological presentation and clinical-

-pathological correlation of the findings.

Keywords: lupus erythematosus, drug-induced adverse skin reactions, lichenoid dermatitis
