摘要To the Editor:Dermoscopy is a noninvasive and widely used tool to diagnose skin lesions.It enables the observation of morphological patterns that are not otherwise visible to the naked eyes.[1] Given the wide variety of clinical features and uncommon clinical manifestations of dermatoses,sometimes incorrect diagnoses and subsequent improper treatments may be applied to patients erroneously.In such equivocal cases,dermoscopy can be an important tool for correctly diagnosing ailments.[2] In this paper,we reported a case of discoid lupus erythematosus in a male patient.The discoid lupus erythematosus had atypical presentations,which was observed by dermoscopy and later confirmed by histopathological examination.
