ABSTRACT
Lupus nephritis represents the most common manifestation of lupus of the solid organs and is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease.

We report three patients in whom these two disease entities occurred in parallel, necessitating intensive immunosuppressive therapy, including complement blockade.
