ABSTRACT
The association of systemic lupus erythematosus [SLE] and hypothyroidism is uncommon, and concerns essentially the autoimmun thyroiditis. However, the coexistence SLE-primary hypothyroidism is exceptional. We report an observation of 25-old woman, who presents a clinical form of hypothyroidism, confirmed by hormonal tests, and which is associated lo polyarthritis and proximal myopathy non ameliorated by opo-therapy. The explorations conclude in SLE. A favourable evolution of muscular and articular signs is obtained with cortico-therapy
