Brief Summary:
The association between SLE and development of of gastrointestinal bleeding
Detailed Description:
systemic lupus erythematosus SLE is an autoimmune disease characterized by multisystem inflammation variable clinical manifestations and a variable clinical course It affects multiple systems and can occasionally manifest as hematological disorders and gastrointestinal GI tract abnormalities1 The complications of SLE are diverse and severe and may include lupus pneumonitis lupus encephalopathy intestinal pseudo-obstruction gastrointestinal bleeding and vasculitis 2 The potential severity of SLE-related GI manifestations is concerning considering that more than 50 of SLE patients develop GI symptoms at some point during the course of illness The incidence and prevalence of GI involvement during the course of SLE disease vary widely This could be due to less attention being paid to GI manifestations than other organ symptoms such as lupus nephritis According to an autopsy study 60-70 of SLE patients had evidence of peritonitis whereas only 10 showed clinical manifestations throughout their lives3 Any part of the GI tract and the hepatobiliary system can be involved from the mouth to the anus The liver can also be affected by SLE abnormal liver function test results were obtained in 23-79 of cases and hepatomegaly in 39-40 In terms of risk factors for GI involvement in SLE SLE patients with Raynauds phenomenon hypocomplementemia and positive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody were at increased risk of developing GI complications4 The main pathological mechanisms of GI involvement in SLE involved mesenteric vasculitis intestinal pseudo-obstruction and protein losing enteropathy5 There is a wide variation of GI manifestations including gastro-esophageal reflux dysphagia abdominal pain constipation diarrhea faecal incontinence intestinal pseudo-obstruction IPO perforations and haemorrhage When GI presents as the initial affected system of SLE there is likely to be a delay in the diagnosis6 Clinical presentations of GI lupus are non-specific and can be difficult to differentiate from infective thrombotic therapy-related and non-SLE aetiologies7
