Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that can affect almost all organ systems in the body. It is most common in women of childbearing age and may cause multiple peripartum complications. This article reviews the pathophysiology of SLE and the effects of SLE on fertility and pregnancy. The complexities of managing a pregnant patient with SLE are reviewed, and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration discussed, as well as the effects of SLE on the fetus and a review of neonatal lupus erythematosus. Finally, a case report of a pregnant patient with SLE with challenging clinical management issues is presented. |
