Neonatal lupus with complete heart block and long term follow up.

ABSTRACT

We present the case of a 27-year-old pregnant woman, newly diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) during pregnancy. The patient delivered a newborn at 38 weeks gestation, who, on the first day of life, manifested complete heart block. This case underscores the clinical challenges associated with neonatal lupus, emphasizing the need for collaborative, multidisciplinary management.
