ABSTRACT

El lupus eritematoso neonatal (LEN) es una enfermedad rara, con incidencia de aproximadamente 2% en recién nacidos y menos del 5% de estos bebés desarrollarán lupus eritematoso sistémico en la adolescencia tardía o en la adultez temprana. Se presenta un caso de un recién nacido de término, hijo de madre sin antecedentes previos, sexo femenino, con marcadores inmunológicos positivos; nace con 3.280 gramos de peso, 40 semanas de edad gestacional, con lesiones en piel en el que el diagnóstico diferencial fue infección herpética, llegando al diagnóstico y logrando descartar de forma oportuna afectación sistémica, la que podría llegar a poner en riesgo la vida del neonato, con esta presentación de caso se concluye la importancia de agregar entre los diagnósticos diferenciales, el lupus eritematoso neonatal, entre los pacientes con lesión en piel incluso desde su nacimiento.


Neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE) is a rare disease, with an incidence of approximately 2% in newborns. Less than 5% of these babies will develop systemic lupus erythematosus in late adolescence or early adulthood. A case of a female term newborn is presented, born to a mother with an unremarkable previous history, with positive immunological markers; birth weight of 3,280 grams, 40 weeks gestational age, with skin lesions in which the differential diagnosis was herpetic infection. The diagnosis was made and systemic involvement was ruled out in a timely manner, which could have potentially endangered the life of the newborn. This case demonstrates the importance of adding neonatal lupus erythematosus to the differential diagnosis in patients with skin lesions at birth.

ABSTRACT

Myotonic dystrophy is an autosomal dominant neuromuscular disorder characterised by extreme pleiotropism and variability in disease expression. A congenital form is rare and is observed in infants born to symptomatic mothers with multisystem involvement. We report a case of a neonate with congenital myotonic dystrophy born to an asymptomatic mother.
