ABSTRACT
RESUMEN A pesar de que la Pitiriasis Rosada se considera una condición cutánea benigna, en el marco del embarazo, hay estudios que relacionan la aparición de esta patología con complicaciones asociadas en el feto. Metodología: Se realiza un reporte de caso, prospectivo, a una mujer de 36 años chilena que presentó esta patología durante la semana 12 de gestación. El objetivo fue describir, la evolución y control y contrastar su evolución con la evidencia científica actual sobre esta temática. Resultados: Paciente presenta placas eritematodescamativas concordantes con diagnóstico de pitiriasis rosada (superficie afectada menos al 50% de su cuerpo), sin presentar enantema, ni síntomas sistémicos. Tuvo un recién nacido sano a las 38 semanas de gestación, sin presentar ningún efecto adverso de los que relaciona la literatura analizada. Conclusiones: Distintos estudios han estudiado los posibles efectos adversos en el feto en madres que han presentado Pitiriasis Rosada en el embarazo, sin embargo, en este reporte de caso no se presentaron complicaciones asociadas. Faltan estudios realizados en mayor cantidad de pacientes.
ABSTRACT Although Pityriasis Rosea is considered a benign cutaneous condition, in the context of pregnancy, there are studies that relate the appearance of this pathology with associated complications in the fetus. Methodology: A prospective case report was made to a 36-year-old Chilean woman who presented this pathology during the twelve weeks of pregnancy. The objective was to describe, the evolution and control and to contrast its evolution with the current scientific evidence on this subject. Results: Patient presents concordant erythematous-desquamative plaques with diagnosis of Pityriasis Rosea (surface affected less than 50% of his body), without presenting enanthem, nor systemic symptoms. Had a healthy newborn at 38 weeks of gestation, without presenting any adverse effect related to the analyzed literature. Conclusions: Different studies have studied the possible adverse effects on the fetus in mothers who have presented pityriasis rosea in pregnancy, however in this case report there were no associated complications. Missing studies in a greater number of patients.

Pityriasis rosea [PR] is an inflammatory papulosquamous disease of unknown etiology. Different viral infections have been implicated as causative agents for PR. We herein report an adult male patient who clinically manifested as pityriasis rosea [PR] during an episode of infection caused by pandemic H1N1 influenza virus, in whom the clinical progression and regression of both the diseases were in tandem
