AbstractSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and myasthenia gravis (MG) are autoimmune diseases, their association in the same patient being rarely described. Here, we report a case of SLE in a 19-year-old girl who within 2 years of the diagnosis of SLE developed MG, and underwent thymectomy for a benign thymoma immediately thereafter.

The neurological manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus are protean: headache, affective disorders, cognitive dysfunction, seizures, strokes, psychosis, acute confusional states, myelopathies, chorea, mimics of demyelinating disease, meningitis, polyneuropathy, mononeuropathy or mononeuritis multiplex, cranial neuropathies, autonomic dysfunction, Guillain-Barre syndrome, or myasthenia gravis make an incomplete list. Each neurological manifestation needs to be analyzed separately to understand pathogenesis, possible relation to primary lupus-related inflammation and vasculopathy, and optimal treatment.
