title: [Serous retinal detachment in systemic erithematosus lupus during corticosteroid therapy].
abstract: METHODS
  A young female patient with systemic lupus erithematosus, inactive for a long period, is described. She develops bilateral serous detachments of the retinal pigment epithelium and neurosensory retina after corticosteroid therapy for a residual nephritis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This unusual chorioretinopathy has been reported in association with systemic lupus erithematosus and during corticosteroid therapy in many disorders. This patient, with low activity erithematosus lupus, develops serous retinal detachments after receiving corticosteroid therapy that damage the coriocapillary-pigment epithelium barrier, disordered in lupus patients.
