Retroauricular milia en plaque: a rare presentation of lupus erythematosus

Milia en plaque is a term used to describe an aggregation of milia occurring on an erythematous base usually localized in the retroauricular area. In most reported cases, no aetiological factors have been identified. We report the first case of milia en plaque associated with discoid lupus erythematosus occurring in the retroauricular site.
