| pubmed:abstractText |
A patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and solitary splenic abscess is described. This seems to be the first such case diagnosed clinically and treated successfully, reported in the literature. A high index of suspicion is important for the diagnosis of this relatively rare condition, which is confirmed by splenic scintigraphy and selective arteriogram. Prompt splenectomy and appropriate antibiotics are curative.
