ABSTRACT
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can manifest systemically in many organs. It is most common in women of child-bearing age. Neuropsychiatric SLE is characterized by central nervous system (CNS) symptoms. CNS manifestations of SLE have been discovered in all parts of the brain, although thalamic infarcts associated with SLE are rare, especially in males. Here, we report a thalamic infarction in a 22-year-old male SLE patient.
