Abstract:
Two young women with systemic lupus erythematosus and pulmonary hypertension are reported. Both patients had Raynaud phenomenon and antibodies to cardiolipin. They seem to be potentially associated in the pathogenesis. Also, laboratory and hemodynamic findings were discussed. Although the treatment, the prognosis still bad.
