Unclear Etiology

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by multiorgan system involvement. Hematologic manifestations are common in SLE and include thrombocytopenia in as many as 50% of patients. Thrombocytosis is much less common in SLE, occurring in less than 5% of patients, and is typically reported in association with autosplenectomy. The following case report describes a 35-year-old female patient who presented for evaluation with extreme thrombocytosis of unclear etiology. The patient was diagnosed with reactive thrombocytosis due to active SLE for which treatment with corticosteroids and plaquenil was provided with subsequent decline in platelet counts. This report highlights the importance of considering SLE in the differential for thrombocytosis despite its classic association with thrombocytopenia.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Case

ResumoObjetivo: Apresentar um caso de síndrome nefrótica, secundária a sífilis, mimetizando Lupus Eritematoso Sistemico. Relato do caso: Mulher jovem, de 26 anos, evoluiu com úlceras orais dolorosas, artralgia e síndrome nefrótica, sendo aventada, inicialmente, a possibilidade de doença autoimune. Os resultados dos exames laboratoriais afastaram a possibilidade de lupus eritematoso sistêmico e confirmaram o diagnóstico de sífilis. Considerações finais: A presença de síndrome nefrótica, em paciente jovem do gênero feminino, deve suscitar a investigação da história sexual pregressa, sendo a sífilis uma possibilidade obrigatória nesta investigação, a qual pode mimetizar o LES, retardando o diagnóstico precoce e o tratamento eficaz.Palavras-chave:Lupus eritematoso sistêmico. Síndrome nefrótica. SífilisAbstractObjective: To present a case of nephrotic syndrome, secondary to syphilis, mimicking systemic lupus erythematosus. Case report: 26-year-old woman who developed painful oral ulcers, arthralgia and nephrotic syndrome, and the possibility of autoimmune disease was initially suggested. The results of the laboratory tests removed the possibility of systemic lupus erythematosus and confirmed the diagnosis of syphilis. Final considerations: The presence of nephrotic syndrome in a young female patient should trigger the investigation of previous sexual history, and syphilis is a mandatory possibility in this investigation, which can mimic SLE, delaying early diagnosis and effective treatment.Keyword:Systemic lupus erythematosus.
