Abstrakt: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that affects multiple organ systems. Patients can have hematologic manifestations, including Evans syndrome (ES), which is characterized by immune-mediated thrombocytopenia and anemia. The association of neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) with autoimmune disorders is rarely reported. We will review the literature for this combination of disorders and describe a case of a 16-year-old girl who presents with immune-mediated cytopenias and is diagnosed with SLE, ES, and NF1. There are 7 reported cases of SLE and NF1 and only 2 are pediatric cases. There are no reports of the combination of SLE, ES, and NF1.
