Resum

Acute confusional syndrome (ACS) is one of the 19 neuropsychiatric syndromes associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It consists of impaired level of consciousness and attention, ranging from mild disturbance to coma. The prevalence of this manifestation in patients with SLE is 1.8% to 4.7%. When a case of ACS in a patient with SLE presents, it is often difficult to differentiate whether the aetiology is CNS involvement secondary to lupus activity or other causes. The differential diagnosis is very broad and includes infections, metabolic disorders, disorders secondary to drugs (especially glucocorticoids) and vascular disorders. The treatment of choice is a combination of glucocorticoids and an immunosuppressant, with cyclophosphamide being the most used drug.
