Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the production of autoantibodies that result in the inflammation of multiple organs. Herein, we present the case of a patient with SLE who experienced delayed perforation of the small bowel with necrotic changes following blunt trauma. Even though the initial radiological findings were negative, the delayed small bowel perforation could be diagnosed based on suspicion via history taking and subsequent physical examination.
