Abstract

Lom syndrome is the association between lupus and protein energy malnutrition lupus with high levels of autoantibodies. Neuropsychiatric lupus is the least understood and the most frequently systemic lupus erythematosus expression, a sign of bad prognosis and high mortality, the manifestations may arise before the disease develops and simulate signs of myelopathy, demyelination and behavioral disorders. We report the case of a patient with neuropsychiatric manifestations as systemic lupus erythematosus activity data and expression of Lom syndrome.
