Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) today
1993
: SLE is a complex systemic disease which probably has a multifactorial genesis. The basis alteration takes the form of a severe immunoregulation disorders. From an epidemiological point of view, there are no certain links with country of origin or race; knowledge of the disease's etiology is equally limited. Clinical symptoms are widely variable according to the prevalent organ or apparatus pathology. The symptomatology of SLE is in fact highly polymorphous thus making it complex and sometimes difficult to diagnose. From a prognostic point of view, over recent years the future of these patients has appeared brighter than in the past. The current therapeutic approach uses a number of measures which can be used in combination or sequentially. It is precisely this varying combination of therapies that has led to a marked prolongation of survival and long disease-free periods.
