We present, for the first time to our knowledge, a patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) with pulmonary Bronchial-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (BALT) lymphoma, refractory to chemotherapy but after a single four-week course of rituximab experienced significant regression of pulmonary lesions and remained progressionfree six months post- treatment. This case report demonstrates the promising role for rituximab in refractory BALT lymphoma.
