A Patient of Lupus Presenting with Myocarditis and Overlapping Autoimmune Hepatitis

Abstract EN

Systemic lupus erythematosus has myriad presentations.

Symptomatic myocarditis and/or symptomatic autoimmune hepatitis associated with lupus are rare at presentation.

Here we report a young Asian girl, who presented to us with features of symptomatic myocarditis and overlapping autoimmune hepatitis.

She was eventually diagnosed to be harboring systemic lupus erythematosus, in whom rigorous management led to gratuitous recovery.
