Abstract
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with a wide range of clinical signs and symptoms. Musculoskeletal problems (e.g. arthralgia, inflammatory arthritis, and non-erosive arthritis) are the first symptom in roughly 80% of individuals. Jaccoud’s arthropathy, which is regarded as reversible, non-erosive, and deforming arthropathy, can be observed in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus in relation to tenosynovitis, capsule retraction, ligament laxity, and muscular imbalance. Risk factors include longer disease duration, higher titers of rheumatoid factor, and anti–double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (anti-dsDNA) antibody positivity. In the current article, a case with SLE and associated Jaccoud’s arthropathy was presented.
