A case of late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with motor neuropathy

Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) usually affects women during their reproductive period, while SLE patients diagnosed over 50 years of age were also reported. Clinical onset, response to the treatment and prognosis vary in these patients. Motor neuropathy is a rare condition for late-onset SLE and it affects the quality of life significantly. Hematologic abnormalities are common in SLE and there is no significant difference between early-onset and late-onset for cytopenias such as hemolytic anemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Herein, we report a 68-year-old female patient presenting with motor neuropathy and hemolytic anemia who was diagnosed as late-onset SLE.
