Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, Libman-Sacks disease) (Latin system lupus erythematosis) - diffuse connective tissue disease characterized by immune-system connective tissue and its derivatives, with the defeat of microvascular. Systemic autoimmune disease in which the antibodies produced by human immune system damage the DNA of healthy cells, mostly damaged connective tissue with the obligatory presence of a vascular component. Disease was named because of its characteristic features - and a rash on the cheeks (the affected area is shaped like a butterfly), which was believed in the Middle Ages, like space wolf bites. The authors concluded that the survival rate 10 years after diagnosis - 80%, in 20 years - 60%. The main causes of death: lupus nephritis, lupus-neuro, intercurrent infection. There are cases of survival of 25-30 years.
