Association between systemic lupus erythematosus and coronary atherosclerosis has been reported only rarely in the medical literature. Sudden ischaemic cardiac death in such cases is an uncommon terminal event, particularly in young patients. The severity of coronary atherosclerosis in these cases may be similar to those seen in the classic coronary disease. A case of a 22-year-old female systemic lupus patient is presented in whom sudden death was found at autopsy to be due to extensive coronary atherosclerosis.
