A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Florida College of Medicine examined the occurrence of Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) in pregnant women. The study found that these conditions are rare in pregnant women, and their impact on both the mother and fetus is not well understood. The researchers analyzed hospitalization data from 2009-2020 and identified 650 pregnancies complicated by SJS/TEN. Most cases occurred during the third trimester, and certain factors such as HIV infection, herpes simplex virus infection, genitourinary tract infections, malignant neoplasm, and lupus erythematosus were associated with an increased risk of developing SJS/TEN during pregnancy. The study concluded that SJS/TEN in pregnancy generally has favorable outcomes, except for an increased risk of preterm birth. [Extracted from the article] |
