A case of systemic lupus erythematosus complicated with multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (MRH): successful treatment of MRH and lupus nephritis with cyclosporin A.

Lupus 2001
We document the first case of a patient who manifested systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) complicated with multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (MRH). Neither intravenous steroid nor cyclophosphamide (CY) pulse therapies were fully effective against multiple MRH-related tumors that appeared on the left ankle joint and interphalangeal joints of both hands. In contrast, treatment with cyclosporin A (CyA) resulted in a marked regression of these nodules within one month, together with a complete remission of both MRH and lupus nephritis. We propose CyA as an alternative choice for the treatment of MRH.
