RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To examine the pregnancy achievement and outcomes in couples in which men with spondyloarthritis (SpA) were exposed to tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi). METHODS: Information about pregnancies involving fathers with SpA was prospectively collected by 6 Romanian rheumatology centers. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients achieved 33 pregnancies and fathered 30 healthy children. Three elective abortions (personal reasons) and no spontaneous abortions, preeclampsia/eclampsia, stillbirths, congenital malformations, or pathologies in the children were recorded. Five patients showed normospermia before and after longterm TNFi treatment. CONCLUSION: Pregnancy and child outcomes in male patients with SpA exposed to longterm TNFi therapy were reassuring.
