Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic inflammatory autoimmune disease with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Libman-Sacks endocarditis (LSE) is due to sterile vegetations that arise in association with SLE. Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis, also known as marantic endocarditis, Libman-Sacks endocarditis, and verrucous endocarditis, is linked to a number of illnesses, the most prevalent of which is advanced cancer. Most often, the surfaces of mitral and aortic valves are involved. However, the involvement of the tricuspid valve is possible and is rarely described in the literature. We present a case of a 25-year-old female who presented with LSE, lupus nephritis, and pulmonary involvement secondary to SLE. On detailed exploration, she was found to have SLE with lupus nephritis and pulmonary hypertension secondary to valvular involvement. Through this case, we would like to elaborate on the course of SLE with triple valvular involvement.
