Systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)is an autoimmune disease with multisystemic features and a variety of clinical characteristics.Typical clinical manifestations of SLE include alopecia,oral ulcers,cutaneous lesions,arthritis,renal injury,and cardiac damage.[1]Cardiac involvement is one of the common complications of SLE,which is mostly asymptomatic with only approximately 10%of cardiac injury patients experiencing symptoms such as shortness of breath and arrhythmia.However,cardiogenic shock is rare,especially as the initial manifestation of SLE.[2]Herein,we report a case of a 15-year-old male who presented with cardiogenic shock and was eventually diagnosed with SLE.
