Systemic lupus erythematosus in Crohn’s disease: drug-induced or idiopathic?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Coexistence of Crohn's disease (CD) and idiopathic systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is very rare. On the other hand, drug-induced lupus erythematosus (DILE) due to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents is a relatively more common entity. DILE due to anti-TNF agents and idiopathic SLE share common serologic and epidemiologic characteristics making the differentiation between those two entities difficult. We present a case of a 35-year-old woman with CD who developed SLE after treatment with adalimumab and denosumab and persisting symptoms eight months after discontinuation of those agents.
