A 33-year-old woman presented with chronic diarrhea, vomiting and anasarca due to systemic lupus erythematosus with protein-losing enteropathy, interstitial cystitis and glomerulonephritis. Methylprednisolone could not prevent aggravation of diarrhea, obstructive uropathy, and nephrotic syndrome, and prolonged intestinal ileus developed. Because of this steroid-resistance, bolus injections of cyclophosphamide (1 g i.v. monthly) were decided. Protein-losing enteropathy and ileus both disappeared rapidly following the first injection. Protein-losing enteropathy, intestinal ileus and interstitial cystitis are exceptional manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus; steroid-resistance of the digestive manifestations has only been reported in one case and our observation is the first reporting the efficacy of cyclophosphamide.
