Abstract:

A 40 year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital with ascites and abdominal pain developed in the last five days. The ascitic fluid was an exudate with negative results for common diseases. Antinuclear antibodies and anti-DNA were positive and a low activity of serum complement was found. The renal biopsy disclosed a lupus glomerulonephritis grade IV. She received oral prednisone and a pulse of cyclophosphamide with gradual resolution of the ascites.
