| Abstract: | Neonatal lupus erythematosus (NLE) occurs due to transplacental transfer of autoantibodies in newborns of mothers with clinical or subclinical collagen vascular diseases. Anti-Ro/SSA antibodies are strongly associated with NLE. Anti-La/SSB and anti-U1 -RNP antibodies are less frequent. Cutaneous and cardiac manifestations are prominent of NLE. Nearly half of the cases show either cutaneous or cardiac features, and 10% show both. Skin lesions may be congenital or develop within 12–16 weeks postpartum |
