Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting women, causing gastrointestinal issues like acute pancreatitis, esophagitis, and protein-losing enteropathy. Protein loss is uncommon, but a case study shows protein-losing enteropathy as a first sign.
Importance: Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare gastrointestinal manifestation of SLE, often seen years before diagnosis.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifaceted autoimmune disorder, occasionally presenting with rare complications like lupus enteritis (LE) and intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IPO). We present a unique case of a 32-year-old woman with LE and IPO, complicated by invasive candidiasis, as an initial manifestation of SLE. The patient presented with a 15-day history of abdominal pain, vomiting, and poor oral intake, and was initially misdiagnosed with infective enterocolitis.

Article Synopsis
- * A thorough literature search was conducted, analyzing 29 studies involving 767 patients, focusing on various gastrointestinal problems associated with SLE and their treatments.
- * The findings indicate that while treatments like intravenous methylprednisolone and oral prednisolone may benefit patients, the overall quality of evidence is low, emphasizing the necessity for better-defined disease standards and more robust clinical trials.
