title: [A case of pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1 with systemic lupus erythematosus].
abstract: A case of pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type 1 with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is reported. A 36-year-old women was admitted to our hospital with the complaints of dyspnea, arthralgia, tetany and tremor. Laboratory findings on admission showed; leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, hypocalcemia, positive antinuclear, anti-RNP, anti-Sm antibodies. A diagnosis of PHP type 1 was made from the findings of Albright's osteodystrophy and Ellsworth-Howard test. On the basis of various auto antibodies and clinical findings, the patient was diagnosed as SLE, too. She was started on a therapy of prednisolone at a dose of 40 mg per day. Her clinical manifestations immediately became better, and her laboratory findings subsequently improved. Up to the present, the case report of overlapping syndrome of PHP type 1 and SLE is very rare. Both PHP and SLE were considered to be in a category of autoimmune disease and the relationship between PHP and SLE was discussed.
