Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

  • R. McD. Fox

Abstract


A Review based on a Dissertation read before the Society on Friday. 29th November, 1964.

Not even the most enthusiastic student of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) would claim that it is a common disease, but it is an interesting one not only because it can mimic almost every other known disease, but also because it combines many of the features of commoner but equally ill-understood connective tissue disorders. Among these are rheumatic fever and rheumatoid arthritis. Another impetus to research is the nature of the victims— most of these unfortunate people are girls and young women.
