    A rare case of procainamide-induced systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) revealed a lymphoproliferative disorder. This finding prompts further investigation into a potential link between lupus and lymphoreticular neoplasia.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease.
    • Drug-induced SLE, such as that caused by procainamide, is a recognized phenomenon.
    • The co-occurrence of SLE and neoplasia, particularly lymphoreticular malignancies, is infrequently reported.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a rare case of procainamide-induced SLE associated with a lymphoproliferative disorder.
    • To explore the potential relationship between lupus diathesis and lymphoreticular neoplasia.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report of a 56-year-old male patient.
    • Postmortem examination to identify the lymphoproliferative disorder.
    • Literature review on the association between SLE and neoplasia.

    Main Results:

    • The patient, diagnosed with procainamide-induced SLE, was found to have a lymphoproliferative disorder upon postmortem examination.
    • This case highlights the rare association between SLE and lymphoreticular neoplasia.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented case suggests a potential, albeit rare, association between SLE and lymphoreticular neoplasia.
    • Further studies, including familial incidence of neoplasia in SLE patients, may elucidate this relationship.
