Description
Baowêndsôm Armelle Djamilatou Sawadogo and co-authors report spinal cord swelling as a rare lupus flare in a woman aged thirty-seven, in a case report from two thousand twenty-five. She also had Sjögren syndrome and came in with worsening leg paralysis and weak arms. Spinal fluid was clear with high protein, and scans showed cord swelling low in the back.
Kidney flare signs joined the picture, with heavy protein in the urine. Strong steroids, a second immune drug, and therapy work brought clear gains. The authors stress the rarity and poor outlook of this lupus pairing, above all in African patients. Readers get a warning case where fast immune care paid off.
