title: Association of systemic lupus erythematosus and gluten enteropathy.
abstract: Systemic lupus erythematosus presents various clinical manifestations. The coexistence of systemic lupus erythematosus and celiac sprue has been rarely reported. We present a patient who had systemic lupus erythematosus with malabsorption demonstrating characteristic clinical and pathologic findings of celiac sprue (gluten enteropathy).
