Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) is a multisys-temic disease. Peripheral neuropathy occurs in about 10% of patients with SLE. Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneurpathy has been reported rarely in SLE. We experienced a case of chronic inflammatory polyneuropathy in lupus nephritis. 32-year-old housewife presented to chronic progressive muscle weakness and heavy proteinuria. Kidney biopsy showed compatible with lupus nephritis (WHO Class V, membranous nephropathy). Nerve conduction studies showed reduction in conduction velocity and sural nerve biopsy revealed demyeli-nating polyneuropathy. Steroid therapy led to improvement in clinical symptoms and proteinuria.
