Abstract

Background: Lupus nephritis is one of complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) which manifests to the kidneys. Lupus nephritis occur in 50-60% of cases in the first ten years of the onset of SLE. Standard therapy for lupus nephritis are immunosuppressive drugs such as corticosteroids and cytostatics. In a refracter case, biologic agent has giving new hope.

Case description: We report a case of seventeen years old female with chief complaints of edema in both feet, skin rash caused by sun exposure, joint pain, mouth ulcer with positive ANA test, proteinuria and high blood sugar level. Patient was then diagnosed with SLE, lupus nephritis and other types of DM. Patient was treated with combination theraphy of cycloposphamide and Rituximab. Patient then discharged in good condition.

Conclusion:  we suggest that combination of cycloposphamide and Rituximab is effective in controlling SLE and reducing the dose of steroid theraphy.

Pada kasus-kasus yang refrakter, terapi dengan agen biologis memberikan harapan baru. Harapan hidup jangka panjang dan renal survival pasien SLE dengan lupus nephritis secara progresif telah mengalami peningkatan sejak ditemukannya agen biologis, rujukan yang lebih dini, dan kriteria diagnostik yang lebih baik.
