  • Title: Unusual transformations of renal involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus.
    Author: Yeung CK, Wong KL, Wong WS, Chan MK, Ng WL.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Med; 1985 Feb; 15(1):69-71. PubMed ID: 3859270.
    Abstract:
    The clinical course of a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus demonstrated that renal involvement in this disease can change, both in the predominant site of renal injury and in the pattern of glomerular lesions. Over 50 months she had first tubulo-interstitial lupus nephritis with no glomerular change, then a membranous nephropathy with disappearance of tubulo-interstitial inflammation, and finally crescentic glomerulonephritis. This case emphasizes the need for close follow-up of all lupus patients regardless of their initial renal manifestations and pathology.
