description BACKGROUND: Diagnosis and management of acute abdomen secondary to systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has always been a clinical challenge. CASE PRESENTATION: A 21-year-old lady, with BMI 17.7, presented to our department with acute abdomen. Laparoscopy was carried out to exclude surgical emergency when conservative regimen failed. The patient revealed a history of purpuric changes and lupus test was positive for SLE. CONCLUSION: Based on our experience, early laparoscopy to alleviate acute abdomen has shown to improve the prognosis of the patient.
