A 33-year-old woman presented with fever, malar rash, lymphadenopathy and pancytopenia 3 weeks after parturition. Serum C3 level was decreased and antinuclear antibody, anti-dsDNA antibody and anti-SS-A antibody were positive. Serum ferritin level was elevated (3454 ng/ml), and bone marrow aspirate revealed hemophagocytosis. She was diagnosed having systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) associated with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS). Oral prednisolone (55 mg/day) was initiated. Clinical manifestations and pancytopenia were improved and serum ferritin level was decreased. However, elevated anti-dsDNA antibody titer and reduced C3 level continued for a month after steroid therapy. The additional therapy of tacrolimus (3 mg/day) improved clinical and laboratory findings. This is a rare SLE case associated with HPS as primary manifestation after parturition.
一名33岁女性在产后3周出现发热、颧部皮疹、淋巴结病和全血细胞减少。血清C3水平降低,抗核抗体、抗双链DNA抗体和抗SS - A抗体均为阳性。血清铁蛋白水平升高(3454 ng/ml),骨髓穿刺显示噬血细胞现象。她被诊断为患有系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)伴噬血细胞综合征(HPS)。开始口服泼尼松龙(55 mg/天)。临床表现和全血细胞减少得到改善,血清铁蛋白水平降低。然而,类固醇治疗后抗双链DNA抗体滴度升高和C3水平降低持续了一个月。他克莫司(3 mg/天)的附加治疗改善了临床和实验室检查结果。这是一例产后以HPS为主要表现的罕见SLE病例。
