Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) occurs in diff erent age groups, but the risk group is people aged 15 to 40, most often female adolescents and young women. In clinical practice, the issue of timely verifi cation of the diagnosis of SLE remains relevant. This clinical case illustrates the onset of acute systemic lupus erythematosus in an adolescent, with rapid involvement of vital organs (kidneys, lungs) in the pathological process. At the initial stage, various diagnoses were discussed; however, a comprehensive examination of the patient was carried out only when the patient was admitted to a hospital. The diagnosis of SLE was confi rmed on the basis of classifying criteria: clinical investigation data.
