Abstract EN
Juvenile dermatomyositis has variable clinical presentations both in and outside of pregnancy.
A literature review indicated that optimal maternal and fetal outcomes can be anticipated when the pregnancy is undertaken while the disease is in remission.
Poorer outcomes are associated with flare-up of the disease in early pregnancy compared with exacerbation in the second or third trimester, when fetal prognosis is usually good.
We present a case of JDM in pregnancy with disease exacerbation late in pregnancy and review of the relevant literature.
