UNCOMPLICATED PREGNANCY AND BIRTH OF A HEALTHY CHILD BY A WOMAN WITH SYSTEMIC LUPUS-ERYTHEMATOSUS AND ANTI-U1RNP, ANTI-PCNA/CYCLIN, ANTI-DSDNA AND ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID AUTOANTIBODIES

We report the course of a pregnancy of a 21-year-old primipara and primigravida with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and anti-U1RNP, anti-PCNA/cyclin, anti-dsDNA and anti-phospholipid autoantibodies. The pregnancy was normal and a healthy child was born at term. The risks associated with the HLA phenotype of the mother and with these autoantibodies were previously unknown. We present a model for risk assessment in patients with rare laboratory features of SLE.
