| Core Tip |
A 37-year-old Chinese woman with decreased visual acuity bilaterally, was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), lupus nephritis and lupus choroidopathy. Patient was successfully treated with systemic corticosteroids, spironolactone, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and intravenous immunoglobulin during hospitalization and oral methylprednisolone, HCQ and MMF after discharge. Two months after the first visit, ophthalmological examination revealed a visual acuity of 20/20 bilaterally, and controlled SLE disease activity. Based on the case report and following literature review, lupus choroidopathy was discussed in the context of recurrence of underlying vasculitis; serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) was excluded and condition treated with immunosuppressive agents; spironolactone is discussed to be safe and helpful in both lupus choroidopathy and CSC. |
