Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm
Abstract
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disorder, which rarely presents with pulmonary artery aneurysm. This report presents a 51-year-old female, known case of SLE for 20 years, presented with dyspnea, productive cough, and hemoptysis. The patient was diagnosed as having a pulmonary artery aneurysm, and managed with medical therapy and follow up instead of surgery.
