Özet

A 5-year-old mix breed domestic dog was referred with a 6-month history of nasal planum lesions. Diagnosis of cutaneous lupus erythematosus was made on the basis of histopathologic findings, negative antinuclear antibody test and clinical features. The present dog responded well to therapy with prednisolone, tetracycline, niacinamide and vitamin E. To the authors' knowledge this is the first reported case of canine CLE in Turkey.
