Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and it is an uncommon cause of hypoalbuminemia without proteinuria. We describe a case of an 11 year-old girl who had diarrhea and periorbital edema as the initial symptoms of SLE. PLE was diagnosed by 24-hour stool alpha-1 antitrypsin clearance and (99m)Tc-human serum albumin scintigraphy.
蛋白丢失性肠病(PLE)是系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)的一种罕见表现,也是无蛋白尿的低白蛋白血症的不常见原因。我们描述了一例11岁女孩的病例,她以腹泻和眶周水肿作为SLE的初始症状。通过24小时粪便α-1抗胰蛋白酶清除率和(99m)锝-人血清白蛋白闪烁扫描诊断为PLE。
