SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS
Vincenzo Berghella
KEY POINTS
Diagnosis: 4/11 AmericanRheumatologic Association
criteria.
Preconception counseling: Feto-neonatal and maternal
complications are primarily seen in
systemic lupus erythematosus
(SLE) patients with active disease
periconception or patients with
hypertension, renal, heart, lungs orbrain disease, or antiphospholipid,
or SSA/SSB antibodies. Therefore,
it is recommended to screen for all
above, and to start pregnancy with
SLE in remission. Optimize
medical therapy preconception.
Laboratories: Complete bloodcount (CBC) with platelets,
transaminases, creatinine, BUN,
anti-Ro (SSA) and anti-La (SSB),anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA),
lupus anticoagulant (LA) or dilute
Russell's viper venom time
(DRVVT), anti beta-2
glycoprotein-I, antinuclear
antibodies (ANA), antids DNA,
C3, C4, urine sediment, 24-hour
urine for total protein and
creatinine clearance.
If stable with no recent flares onazathioprine and/orhydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), it
is recommended to continue them
in pregnancy and postpartum. Keep
at lowest possible efficacious dose
of medications, including steroids.
For women with Antiphospholipidsyndrome, see chapter 26.
Women with antiSSA/Ro or antiSSB/La antibodies have a 2% to
5% risk of congenital heart block
(CHB); preventive screening andtherapy for CHB are not evidence
based. Women with fetuses with
CHB should be managed anddelivered at a tertiary care center
with the availability of immediate
neonatal pacing.
HISTORIC NOTES

SYMPTOMS
See the 11 diagnostic criteria. Also general
(fatigue, fever, malaise, weight loss); GI
(anorexia, ascites, vasculitis); thrombosis,
Raynaud's phenomenon, among others.
EPIDEMIOLOGY / INCIDENCE
1:700 to 2000 general population(1:200 in African Americans).
90% in women. 1/500 inchildbearing age.
ANA : positive in 95 % of SLEpatients, but not specific or
pathognomonic.
Anti ds DNA : positive in 70 % ofSLE Patiens, associated with
clinical activity/flare, renal disease.
Anti-SSA/Ro antibody : positive in30 % of SLE patients, associated
with congenital heart block (CHB)
( see below) neonatal lupus,
Sjogrens syndrome.
Anti-SSB/La antibody; positive in10 % of SLE patients; associated
with CHB, neonatal lupus,Sjogrens syndrome.
Anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA):positive in 50 % of SLE patients.
Associated with antiphospholipid
syndrome (APS) (see chapter 23),
thrombosis.
Lupus anticoagulant (LA) ;positive in 26 % of SLE patients,
associated with APS (Chapter 23),
fetal growth restriction (FGR), fetal
death and preeclampsia. 25 % of SLE patients meet criteria
for APS (see chapter 23)
Anti-SM : positive in 30 % of SLEpatients specific for SLE.
Anti RNP : positive in 40 % ofSLE patients, associated with
neonatal lupus, mixed connective
tissue (CT) disease.
Anti centromere : 90 % inCREST variant of scleroderma.
ETIOLOGY / BASIC
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Autoantibody (Ab) to fixed tissue antigen
(Ag) in vessel wall, nucleus, cytoplasmic
membranes, etc.; Ag-Ab complexes inserum.
COMPLICATIONS
Maternal
Hypertension and pre eclampsia
(20 50 %), preterm birth (PTB) 30 50
% (spontaneus premature preterm
rupture of membranes [PPROM] and
preterm labor [PTL] and indicated),gestational diabetes mellitus.
Fetal / neonatal
Increased incidence of first-
trimester spontaneous pregnancy loss (10
20%), fetal death (130 %), FGR (10
20%), CHB (see below), neonatal lupus
(see below).
These adverse outcomes areprimarily seen in SLE patients with active
disease periconceptionally, or in patients
with hypertension, renal, cardiac,
pulmonary or neurologic
disease, or antiphospholipid antibodies.
APS is associated with most fetal deaths in
SLE. Renal disease is present in 50% of
SLE patients. Lupus nephritis and APS are
associated with higher incidence of PTL
and hypertensive disorders. Above
complications may also be seen morefrequently in multiple pregnancies with
SLE.
PREGNANCY CONSIDERATIONS
Effect of pregnancy on SLE
Pregnancy usually does not affect
long-term prognosis of SLE. Incidence of
flares varies widely, depending on the
definition of flare, patient selection, and
clinical status at conception. About 50% ofpatients will have measurable lupus

activity during pregnancy. Flares can occur
in any trimester, but are most common in
late pregnancy and postpartum. Most flares
in pregnancy are mild (90%),
musculoskeletal, and hematologic.
Prednisone 20 mg only is usuallyrequired for severe flares.
Effect of SLE on pregnancy
Increased incidence of
complications (see above). If renal SLE,
50% have hypertension, 10% to 30%
worsening but usually reversible renal
disease. If creatinine 1.3 mg/dL, and/or
creatinine clearance 50 mL/min, and/or
proteinuria >3 g in 24 hourpreconceptionally, there is small risk of
irreversible renal deterioration.
MANAGEMENT
Principles
Over 90% of women without end-
organ disease or antiphospholipid
antibodies (APAs) do well, and take home
babies. Goal: pregnancy with SLE in
remission. Start pregnancy with SLE in
remission. To achieve this, usually need to
optimize medical therapy
preconceptionally. Most drugs are safe
(see below), and should be continued
throughout pregnancy.
WorkUp
Baseline prenatal laboratory testsshould include the following (Table 25.1) :
CBC with platelets, transaminases,
creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN),
anti-Ro (SSA), anti-La (SSB), ACA, LA,
anti-beta 2-glycoprotein-I, ANA, antids
DNA, C3, C4, urine sediment, 24-hour
urine for total protein and creatinine
clearance.
Differential Diagnosis
Distinguish SLE flare from
preeclampsia includes the following: C3,
C4 ( in SLE), and antids DNA ( in
SLE), urine sediment (red and white cellsand cellular casts seen in SLE).
Gestational age (GA) at onset of
symptoms is also helpful, with
preeclampsia usually only after 24 weeks.
Preconception Counseling
Review all of above with patient
and family, especially diagnosis, risks and
complications, and management. Evaluate
by history, physical exam, and laboratorytests. Obtain records. Discuss current
medications. To insure pregnancy is
conceived with SLE quiescent, encourage
patient to wait at least six months without
flares/active disease before attempting
conception. If stable with no recent flares
on azathioprine and/or
hydroxychloroquine, it is recommended to
continue them in pregnancy and
postpartum. Keep at lowest possible
efficacious dose of steroids. Discuss
contraception. Consider multidisciplinary
management with a rheumatologist.
Prenatal Care
For women with positive
antiphospholipid antibody, see chapter 26.
Treatment decisions are based on the past
obstetric history and any history of prior
thromboembolic events. Identify andmanage risk factors for early pregnancy
loss. The use of medications to treat or
suppress SLE flares will need to be
evaluated on an individual basis. If
patients have been maintained on
medication(s) throughout the pregnancy,
these should be continued through the
postpartum period. Counsel regarding
avoiding excessive sun exposure or
fatigue.

Therapy
NSAIDs (non- steroidal anti
inflammatory drugs)
Safe up to 28 to 30 weeks. Side
effects: fetal ductal closure and
oligohydramnios, especially after 30
weeks.
Corticosteroids
Mechanism of action: increase
antibody levels. Prednisone: 5 - 80 mg
usual daily dose. Try to keep maintenancedoses 20 mg/day. For treatment of flares,
usually need 60 mg/day for three weeks.
Safe in pregnancy (metabolized by
placenta, does not cross it). Animal studies
report facial clefts. Safe for breast-feeding.
High doses: risk of diabetes (perform early
glucola),and of PPROM. Taper if used
more than seven days. Stress steroids in
active labor up to one dose post delivery (
hydrocortisone 100 mg IV q8h) are
indicated only if steroid therapy in
pregnancy for > 14 days (to prevent
Addisonian collapse [very rare] general
malaise, nausea/vomiting, skin changes).
Side effects: increased bone loss,
especially together with heparin (give
calcium).
Azathioprine ( Azasan,Imuran)
Daily 50 to 100 mg orally ordivided bid. Increase after six to eight
weeks. Safe in pregnancy. FGR
association is probably due to SLE, not
azathioprine. It induces chromosomal
breaks, which disappear as infant grows.
Hydroxycholoroquine sulfate
(Plaquenil)
Antimalarian drug. 400 to 600 mg orally
daily, then 200 to 400 mg daily.Probably safe in pregnancy. If stopped, 2.5
times risk of flare compared to placebo.
Important not to stop drug
periconceptionally. No long-term effects.
Safe in breast-feeding.
Other Agents
Acethaminophen (paracetamol):
safe throughout pregnancy, but usually not
as effective as other therapies. Avoid
cyclophosphamide, methotrexate,
penicillamine, and mycophenolate mofetil,
which are not safe in pregnancy.
Plasmapheresis is a last resort, consult
rheumatologist.
Antepartum testing
Accurate gestational age
assessment is important; therefore, a first-
trimester ultrasound examination is
indicated.
Fetal growth can be evaluated
throughout the pregnancy with ultrasound
examinations every 46 weeks. For
women with anti SSA/Ro, and/or anti-
SSB/La antibodies, see CHB below. A
fetal echocardiogram is indicated if CHB,
arrhythmia or hydropic signs are detected.
Patients in whom disease activity is
quiescent, and there is no evidence of
hypertension, renal disease, FGR, or
preeclampsia, can begin weekly fetal
testing at 34 to 36 weeks' gestation.
Patients with active disease,
antiphospholipid antibodies, renal disease,
hypertension, or FGR can begin
antepartum testing earlier, for example, 30
to 32 weeks.
Delivery
Stress dose steroids are indicated
only if steroid use > 14 days during
pregnancy ( see corticosteroids above).
Postpartum/breastfeeding
Flares are more common.
Continue, and consider increasing SLEtherapies.

CONGENITAL HEART BLOCK
Incidence
About 2% - 5% of SSA/SSB positivewomen.
Etiology
Anti-SSA/Ro and anti-SSB/La
antibodies cause myocarditis and fibrosis
in the atrioventricular (AV) node and
bundle of His regions.
Counseling
Usually permanent, with
pacemaker needed. One-third of untreated
CHB infants die within three years
(sudden death). There is about a 1533 %
recurrence in future siblings.
Complications: congestive heart failure
(hydrops).
MANAGEMENT
Prevention
If at high CHB risk given presence of anti
SSA/Ro dan/or anti-SSB/La
antibodies,consider following with serial
echocardiography about every 2 weeks
from about 16 to 32 weeks to look for
prolonged PR (AV) interval and any
dysrhythmia, especially looking for
incomplete ( first or second) degree block.
The fetal mechanical PR interval ismeasured from simultaneous mitral and
aortic Doppler waveforms. If incomplete
block is detected, consider therapy with
dexamethasone (4 mg orally) to prevent
progression to complete (third) degree
block. This screening may not be cost
effective, given CHB is uncommon in
prospective series even with positive anti-
SSA/Ro and/or anti-SSB/La antibodies
and is not evidence based.
Prenatal Care
Fetal echocardiography: 1020 %
of CHB have a congenital heart detect
(CHD) and not anti-SSA/Ro dan/or anti-
SSB/La antibodies, but 95% of CHBwithout CHD have anti-SSA/Ro and/or
anti-SSB/La antibodies.
Therapy
A complete (third degree) CHB,
this is considered to be irreversible. The
effectiveness of steroids,beta-
mimetics,digoxin or intravenous
immunoglobulin (IVIG) or any other
therapy to normalize conduction orimprove outcome has not been confirmed
in any trial. Women with fetuses with
CHB should be managed and delivered at
a tertiary care center with the availability
of immediate neonatal pacing.
Delivery
While trial of labor (TOL) by
repeated scalp sampling to assure fetal
well-being can be attempted, TOL is often
difficult to manage clinically.
NEONATAL LUPUS
Transient neonatal SLE, that results from
maternal immunoglobulin G (IgG) passing
through the placenta. Usually, neonatal
lupus occurs in 10% of ati SSA/Ro
and/or anti-SSB/La positive pregnancies.
Thus, prophylaxis is not indicated.Female:Male ratio = 14:1. Not always
mother has diagnosis of SLE. Most cases
are cutaneous (transient rash) and have
thrombocytopenia. Can also have other
hematological,CHB,etc., complications.
Can last for 14 to 16 weeks. The Neonatal
death rate is 1% to 2%.
