Abstract
Pericarditis is the most common cardiac manifestation of Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but pericardial effusion infrequently happens as the first clinical sign of SLE. We report the case of a previously healthy 19 years old male patient whose initial manifestation of lupus was a large pericardial effusion impending tamponade. In this case report we will describe the clinical course, echocardiographic and laboratory features of a large pericardial effusion secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with brief medical literature review.
