    Neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE) can cause skin rashes, low blood counts, and enlarged spleen in infants. These symptoms typically resolve on their own by four months of age.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Dermatology
    • Neonatology
    • Rheumatology

    Background:

    • Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in mothers can pose risks to newborns.
    • Neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE) is an autoimmune condition affecting infants born to mothers with specific autoantibodies.
    • Understanding NLE manifestations is crucial for timely diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • An infant born to a mother with SLE presented with a widespread skin rash at five weeks old.
    • Skin biopsy confirmed cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LE).
    • Additional clinical signs included splenomegaly, anemia, neutropenia, and low complement levels.

    Findings:

    • The infant's clinical presentation was consistent with neonatal lupus erythematosus.
    • All observed symptoms, including cutaneous lesions and hematologic abnormalities, resolved spontaneously.

  • The infant experienced a benign clinical course, with complete resolution by four months of age.

    • Implications:

    • Neonatal lupus erythematosus can manifest with diverse clinical features, including dermatologic, cardiac, and hematologic issues.
    • Early recognition of NLE signs in infants is essential for appropriate monitoring.
    • The review of 52 previously reported cases provides a broader understanding of NLE's spectrum and prognosis.
