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.en-USRecurrentPneumothoraxSystemic Lupus ErythematosusContributory factorsArticle
