Spectrum of cardiac involvement in neonatal lupus.
Scandinavian Journal of Immunology 2010 September
'Neonatal' lupus erythematosus (NLE) describes a clinical spectrum of cardiac and non-cardiac abnormalities observed in neonates and foetuses whose mothers have the auto-antibodies anti-SSA/Ro (anti-Ro) and anti-SSB/La (anti-La). Of the cardiac abnormalities, congenital AVB is the most common cardiovascular abnormality found in affected foetuses and infants. Many other cardiovascular manifestations of NLE have been more recently recognized including atrial and ventricular arrhythmias and other conduction abnormalities, myocarditis, cardiomyopathy often with endocardiofibroelastosis and structural heart disease, particularly valvar lesions. In this report, the spectrum of cardiovascular manifestations observed in foetuses and infants with NLE are reviewed and the pathogenesis, diagnosis and clinical outcomes are briefly discussed.
