Abstract
We present a Burmese patient with widespread annular erythema associated with Sjögren's syndrome. Unlike previously described cases, the disease occurred in the setting of systemic lupus erythematosus. Photoprovocation testing revealed light sensitivity in the UVA range with elicitation of subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus-like lesions. The presence of an erythema annulare centrifugum-like eruption should initiate the search for Sjögren's syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus.
