ABSTRACT
We describe a case of renal cell carcinoma in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus [SLE]. The patient had been prescribed prednisolone and azathioprine for the preceding 8 years. It is difficult to be certain if the tumor occurrence was de novo or secondary to the effect of immunosuppressive drugs. In view of the renal insufficiency, conservative surgery was performed. A literature survey suggests that this is the second reported case of renal cell carcinoma in a patient with SLE
