Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the prototype autoimmune disorder, one that is known for its many, diverse modes of presentation. In this paper, we present a further unusual presentation of SLE, that of acute onset, severe heart failure secondary to dilated cardiomyopathy. Only a few similar cases have been reported in the literature.Entities:
