Pregnancy complications in women with systemic lupus erythematosus
Abstract:
Systemic lupus erythematosus is a rare inflammatory connective tissue disease that affects mainly women, often in their childbearing years. The disease entails an increased risk of fetal and maternal pregnancy complications. Inflammatory active disease and the occurrence of anticardiolipin antibodies are known risk factors. Planning before pregnancy and multidisciplinary structured follow-up reduce the risk of unwanted pregnancy outcomes. Only in exceptional cases should women with systemic lupus erythematosus be advised against pregnancy.
