| description | A 32-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus came to the rheumatology outpatient clinic reporting abdominal pain for a week, along with fever, arthralgias, myalgias, alopecia, asthenia and dyspnea on exertion over the last two months. She was hypotensive and tachycardic, requiring admission to the intensive care unit. She was diagnosed with lupus-related acute pancreatitis, an unusual complication occurring in less than 1% of cases. Most cases are mild and self-limited; however, severe and life-threatening events with multiple organ failure are possible. This article is a case report of lupus-related critical acute pancreatitis, and a literature review. |
