Resumen
GONZALEZ NARANJO, Luis Alonso y RESTREPO ESCOBAR, Mauricio. Systemic lupus erythematosus and pregnancy. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.3, pp.175-186. ISSN 0121-8123.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is associated with multiple adverse pregnancy outcomes, including fetal loss, preterm birth, and pre-eclampsia. With treatment advances, the prognosis of pregnancy in women with SLE has improved. In addition to complications related to pregnancy, SLE women are at increased risk for medical complications during pregnancy such as hypertension, renal disease, antiphospholipid syndrome, pregestational diabetes or active SLE which affect the course of the disease and worse the outcome of pregnancy. Pregnancy increases the likelihood of a lupus flare. It is not possible to predict when an individual patient will flare, although flare is more likely if disease has been active within six months of conception.
