Abstract

The management of patients with SLE still brings significant challenges, also on intellectual grounds. However, for most of the standard situations, clear principles can be delineated for diagnosis and therapy. New drugs and international definitions of strategies in SLE patient care constitute significant improvement and promise further progress for the coming years.
