    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal immunology
    • Dermatology
    • Rheumatology

    Background:

    • Neonatal lupus syndrome (NLS) is a rare condition caused by transplacental passage of maternal autoantibodies.
    • Anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies are frequently implicated in the pathogenesis of NLS, particularly cardiac manifestations.

    Observation:

    • An infant boy presented with characteristic cutaneous and serologic findings suggestive of NLS.
    • The infant's mother was asymptomatic during pregnancy and postpartum.

    Findings:

    • Both the infant and his mother were positive for anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies.
    • The presence of these antibodies in both mother and child supports the diagnosis of NLS.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of screening for anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies in infants with suspected NLS.

  • Early diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent potential long-term complications.
  • Further investigation into the genetic predisposition within the family may be warranted.
