A patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and solitary splenic abscess is described. This seems to be the first such case diagnosed clinically and treated successfully, reported in the literature. A high index of suspicion is important for the diagnosis of this relatively rare condition, which is confirmed by splenic scintigraphy and selective arteriogram. Prompt splenectomy and appropriate antibiotics are curative.
本文描述了一名患有系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)并伴有孤立性脾脓肿的患者。这似乎是文献中报道的首例经临床诊断并成功治疗的此类病例。对于这种相对罕见疾病的诊断,高度的怀疑指数很重要,脾闪烁扫描和选择性动脉造影可确诊。及时行脾切除术并使用适当的抗生素可治愈该病。
