Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease characterized by multiorgan system involvement and the presence of autoantibodies. The disease is significantly more prevalent in women than men, with peak incidence in women of child-bearing age. Approximately 20% of all cases of systemic lupus erythematosus occur in the pediatric age group and this is the focus of this review.
