Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can present with various clinical manifes- tations, and early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent irreversible organ damage. Here, we report a case of a 35-year-old female with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who presented with hematolog- ical and musculoskeletal symptoms, ultimately leading to a diagnosis of SLE. The patient’s workup included positive ANA and dsDNA tests and a CT scan revealing an oval-shaped lytic lesion in the medullary cavity of the right iliac bone.
