Zusammenfassung

Die heutigen Therapieoptionen und -konzepte haben die Chancen von SLE-Patientinnen und -Patienten auf ein langes und gutes Leben mit Lupus deutlich verbessert. Gerade deshalb stellt die Erkrankung weiter eine relevante ärztliche Herausforderung dar. Die Breite der möglichen Organbeteiligung fordert den „Vollblut“-Internisten in jedem Rheumatologen heraus. Schübe, Infektionen und vaskuläre Ereignisse können kaum je längerfristig ausgeschlossen werden und benötigen von Patienten wie Ärzten ein hohes Maß an Aufmerksamkeit. Zusätzlich haben psychische Faktoren oft deutlichen Einfluss auf das Gesamtbild. Dennoch lassen sich für die meisten häufigen Situationen ähnlich wie bei der rheumatoiden Arthritis (RA) klare, einfache Regeln aufstellen. Diese sollen in der vorliegenden Übersicht skizziert werden.

Abstract

Today’s therapeutic options and concepts have greatly improved the chances of SLE patients to live a long and good life with lupus erythematosus. However, this is the very reason why SLE continues to be a considerable challenge for physicians. The broad spectrum of possible organ involvement requires every rheumatologist to be a “full-blooded” internal medicine specialist. Flares, infections and vascular events usually cannot be ruled out in the long run and necessitate vigilance both on the patient’s and the physician’s side. In addition, psychological factors often have a significant impact on the overall picture. Nevertheless, simple and straightforward rules can be formulated for most situations, as was done for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This review aims to outline these rules.
