description We described in this article a 19-year-old girl with an intracranial hypertension as an initial presentation of neuropsychiatric lupus. The brain MRI showed diffuse, bilateral and symmetrical white and grey matter hyperintensities. These lesions completely disappeared after 3 months of treatment. Diffuse cerebral edema with or without leukoencephalopathy in neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus is an extremely rare entity.
