Abstract

Background and Aim: Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can lead to the involvement of different organs. Its cause has not yet been fully understood, although the effects of factors such as environmental, genetic and hormonal factors have been identified. The purpose of this study was to report a case of lupus manifestation and Bee Sting. Methods: The present paper was a case-control study. Patient information was collected from clinical records and clinical records and were included in the questionnaire. The results of patient tests were also studied. Patient presentation: An 11-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with the history of fever, malar rash and joint pain, with a 20 day suffering. The child had no presentations of the disease, until he was stung by a bee on his neck. Two weeks later, he developed generalized rash, malar rash, arthritis and photosensitivity. In lab data; anemia, proteinuria, increased levels of anti-nuclear antibody, anti-double strand DNA and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were observed. Class III of Nephritis was observed based on the renal biopsy. Treatment with prednisolone and hydroxychloroquine was started and in one year of follow up, favorable outcomes were observed. Conclusions: Based on the presented case and the previous reports, it seemed that the bee venom might have had a dual role in the immune system. Although the beneficial effects of the bee venom had been observed in some autoimmune diseases (arthritis), some of the autoimmune diseases were triggered by the bee venom (such as Guillain-Barre syndrome, Henoch-Shonleine purpura, myocarditis and Nephritis). The present study was of few studies reporting SLE following Bee Sting. Therefore, considering the reported adverse effects of bee venom, the application of bee venom in the treatment of diseases should be reconsidered.
