Abstract
The selective involvement of the choroid plexus on brain magnetic resonance (MR) images is described in 2 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with neurological symptoms. The decrease in choroid plexus abnormalities on followup MR examination paralleled the clinical recovery with glucocorticoid therapy in both patients. Our cases indicate that selective involvement of the choroid plexus should be included in the spectrum of the radiological signs for neurological lupus.
