Abstract

Fulminant lupus pneumonitis is a rare complication of SLE. We report a case of 75 years‐old male patient with SLE who developed pneumonia and severe respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation. Refractory respiratory distress complicating noninfectious fulminant lupus pneumonitis did not respond to methylprednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulin treatment. FLP in SLE of the elderly is a rare and severe condition. Each practitioner has to focus on respiratory failure, which is severe and life‐threatening. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
