Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disorder involving multiple organs, including the nervous system. Neuropsychiatric involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus is one of the major manifestations of the disease. Both partial and generalised seizures can occur in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. In this article, we report a seven-year-old girl with a case of systemic lupus erythematosus who initially presented with an episode of status epilepticus.Sistemik lupus eritematozus, merkezi sinir sistemi dahil, çoklu organ tutulumu olan otoimmün bir hastalıktır. Sistemik lupus eritematozus hastalığında nöropsikiyatrik tutulum, hastalığın majör tanı kriterlerinden biridir. Sistemik lupus eritematozuslu hastalarda hem parsiyel hem de jeneralize nöbetler görülebilir. Bu yazıda, başlangıçta status epileptikus epizodu ile kendini gösteren sistemik lupus eritematozuslu yedi yaşında bir kız olgu sunuldu.
