Abstract: Objective:To investigate clinicpathological characteristics and interrelation between lupus nephritis (LN) and lupus enteritis (LE). Methodology:A retrospective study was performed on patients presenting LE in LN from January 2010 to November 2019. Their clinicpathological characteristics and outcomes were analyzed. Results:Of the 3 430 patients with LN,90 (26%) patients were diagnosed with LE. Both clinical and serology showed lupus activity,and the SLEDAI score was 1171±487 when LE occurred. The manifestations of LE were abdominal pain (800%),nausea and vomiting (678%),diarrhea (644%),and alimentary tract hemorrhage (67%). The majority of patients with abdominal CT prompt submucosal edema (679%),bowel wall thickening (790%),and intestinal cavity expansion (407%),ascites (567%),60% “target sign”. The hematologic (756%),lupus myocarditis (111%),and neurological involvement (44%) were observed. And 26 patients were hydronephrosis or hydroureters. Acute kidney injury,and nephrotic syndrome were found in 23 (256%),24 (267%) patients,respectively. The proportion of LE in lupus podocytopathy (143%),and LN class Ⅱ (118%) were higher than that in class V (26%) and proliferative LN (17%). 88 patients were improved after immunosuppressive therapy. With a median followup of 440 months,13 cases (144%) had LE recurrence. The 5 years patient and renal survival were 874% and 720%,respectively. And the 5 years renal survival was just 536% in proliferative LN. The renal survival rate in LE group was significantly lower than in control group. Cox multivariate analysis showed that time course of LN,renal insufficiency,cardiac insufficiency,and gastrointestinal bleeding were risk factors affecting renal prognosis of patients with LN and LE Conclusion: LN patients with LE have strong renal and external organ activity,and LE is more common in nonproliferative LN. Their prognosis was poor,especially in patients with proliferative LN; early diagnosis and treatment of LE should be emphasized to improve prognosis.
