Overview

abstract

  • Neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE) is an inflammatory syndrome in the fetus or neonate associated with the presence of anti-Ro(SSA) and anti-La(SSB) antibodies in the mother. It is characterized by a combination of dermatologic, hematologic, hepatic, and cardiac manifestations. NLE has been reported in twins; we describe neonatal lupus erythematosus occurring in triplets.
