Life Expectancy and Survival Rates. 5-year survival rate for Lupus: It is estimated that 97 percent of individuals with SLE live at least five years (Source: excerpt from Connective Tissue Diseases: NWHIC).

Three types of skin lupus exist: chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CCLE) (also known as Discoid Lupus Erythematosus [DLE]), subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE), and tumid lupus.
