Abstract Agranulocytosis is a rare acute condition characterized by severe a < gft (neutropenia in which the neutrophils count is less than 100/mm3. It can be classified into two categories, inherited, and acquired. Acquired agranulocytosis is not commonly caused by auto‐immune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We report a case of a patient suffering from agranulocytosis related to SLE at disease onset, associated with other rare disease involvements.
