Abstract

Kidney amyloidosis is mainly seen in chronic inflammatory and infectious diseases ,rheumatoid arthritis , ankylosing spondylitis and auto-immune diseases. It is exceptional during systemic lupus erythematosus. We report the case of a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus associated with the early onset of kidney amyloidosis type AA .The kidney biopsy shows amyloidosis type AA. This association has been reported in the literature in twenty cases previously. This case study emphasizes the importance of considering the diagnosis of amyloidosis when the findings include massive proteinuria in all stages of systemic lupus erythematosus
