A review is made of the literature on central nervous system involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus (CNS-SLE). Particular attention is focused on lupus myelopathy. Referring to two well-documented personal cases, the authors describe the characteristic multisystem involvement, protean clinical pattern, serum and cerebrospinal fluid changes, histoimmunologic findings, response to corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents and some prognostic features.
