[Lupus erythematosus, circulating anticoagulant and obstetric complications. Apropos of 2 cases]

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a disease occurring mostly in women in the childbearing age. We present two cases of pregnancy complicated one by SLE, the other by a "lupus-like" syndrome. In the first case, the fetus suffered from a complete heart block; in the second one, a lupus anticoagulant was discovered in the mother. These two cases are discussed by the light of the literature.
