Abstract:
A 4-month-old female infant presented with congenital periorbital skin changes. The patient showed bilateral periorbital erythema, telangiectasia and eczematous skin lesions resembling "raccoon eyes" which resulted in a clinical diagnosis of neonatal lupus erythematosus. The diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of elevated anti-Ro antibodies in both the infant and her mother. No cardiological or other abnormalities were found.
