Here we report a case of neonatal lupus erythematosus syndrome presenting with multisystem organ involvement, including anemia, thrombocytopenia, purpura, bloody diarrhea, enzymatic liver abnormalities, splenomegaly and pneumonitis. These findings preceded the cutaneous rash that was the clue for the diagnosis. The patient's mother had an undiagnosed subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus. The various forms of onset of neonatal lupus erythematosus syndrome are emphasized.
