DOI: 10.26650/IUITFD.344912 Objective: To evaluate maternal and fetal outcomes in pregnant women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Materials and Methods: This retrospective clinical study included 126 consecutive cases of pregnant women with SLE and was performed in the perinatology clinic of our university hospital. We evaluated lupus pregnancies that were followed and delivered from 2002 to 2016. Results: The mean patient age was 29.1 ± 4.6 years, and the nulliparity rate was 45.2%. Disease flare-up occurred in 11.1% of patients. Lupus anticoagulants and anticardiolipin IgG and IgM antibodies were positive in 23.8%, 18.2%, and 18.2% patients, respectively. The mean gestational age at delivery was 37.2 ± 3.7, and the mean birth weight was 2813 ± 856 g. Fetal growth restriction, preterm delivery, stillbirth, and preeclampsia rates were 16.6%, 10.3%, 10.3%, and 9.5%, respectively. Conclusion: A multidisciplinary approach to the care of pregnant women with SLE is mandatory for good maternal and fetal outcomes.
