Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune condition, characterized by the production of autoantibodies, predominantly against nuclear antigens. It primarily affects women of childbearing age. Men account for 4-22% of all cases in various series (1,2). Lupus nephritis can be diagnosed with high sensitivity and specificity based on histopathological criteria alone (3). We report lupus nephritis in a 50-year-old male diagnosed solely on renal histopathological findings.
