Abstract

ABSTRACT

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a disease whose cause is not clear and which may cause different clinical combinations, characterized by remissions and relapses. The diagnosis of SLE is made when the patient presents a combination of four or more of 11 criteria based on clinical features and antibodies (malar rash, discoid rash, photosensitivity, oral ulcers, arthritis, serositis, renal disorder, neurologic disorder, hematologic disorder, immunologic disorder and antinuclear antibodies). Among the cardiovascular manifestations, pericardial effusion and symptoms of pericarditis are observed in most patients. Nevertheless, cardiac tamponade is rare as a clinical manifestation.
