| dc.description.abstract | Abstract: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus is an autoimmune disorder with multiple system involvement. Despite its pleuro-pulmonary involvement, recurrent spontaneous pneumothoraces are rare complication of childhood SLE. We report a 12 year old girl having SLE with nephritis, who developed recurrent episodes of spontaneous pneumothoraces. Surgical management with prolonged evacuation and aggressive immunosuppressive therapy improves the outcome for these patients. | |
