Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can involve multiple organ systems. The most common form of vasculitis seen in SLE is small vessel vasculitis. Aortitis in SLE or antiphospholipid syndrome is an extremely rare complication. Here, we present a 32-year-old female who presented with a history of prolonged abdominal pain, who was evaluated and diagnosed to have aortitis as an unusual involvement in SLE with secondary antiphospholipid antibody syndrome.
系统性红斑狼疮（SLE）是一种可累及多个器官系统的自身免疫性疾病。SLE中最常见的血管炎形式是小血管炎。SLE或抗磷脂综合征中的主动脉炎是一种极其罕见的并发症。在此，我们报告一名32岁女性，她有长期腹痛病史，经评估被诊断为主动脉炎，这是SLE伴继发性抗磷脂抗体综合征的一种不寻常累及情况。
