  • Impetigo Herpetiformis: a Case Report
    Perinatal Journal • Vol: 13, Issue: 4/December 2005 227 Impetigo Herpetiformis: A Case Report ‹ncim Bezircio¤lu1, Merve Biçer1, Levent Karc›1, Füsun Özder2, Ali Balo¤lu1 1First Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2Clinics of Dermatology, Atatürk Training and Research Hospital, ‹zmir Abstract Objective: Impetigo herpetiformis is a rare and potentially life-threatening pustular dermatosis affecting mainly pregnant women. We report here a case of impetigo herpetiformis which occured in twenty-ninth week of pregnancy. Case: A 32 year old gravida 2, para1 pregnant woman who was referred to our institution because of congestive heart failure, gestational diabetes mellitus and oligohidroamnios in 27th gestational age was hospitalized. Eruptive pustular lesions which appeared in 29th week of the gestation has spread her entire body. Her pustular cultures were negative. A punch skin biopsy from a pustule on the trunk made the diagnosis of impetigo herpetiformis. The patient who developed spontaneous uterine contractions was treated with betamethazone and tocolysis. The patient who did not respond to this treatment was taken to delivery at 30 weeks of gestation.The newborn showed no skin lesions after birth. The skin lesions of the mother improved in the second postpartum week. Conclusion: The rates of maternal mortality and fetal mortality and morbidity due to placental insufficiency are increased in impetigo herpetiformis. To reduce the mortality and morbidity rates the antenatal management of impetigo herpetiformis should be organized with a multidisciplinary approach. Keywords: Impetigo herpetiformis, generalized pustular psoriasis. Impetigo herpetiformis: Bir olgu sunumu Amaç: ‹mpetigo herpetiformis gebelerde görülen yaflam› riske edebilen nadir bir püstüler dermatozdur.

Abstract: Psoriasis is a chronic immunologic disease involving inflammation that can target internal organs, the skin, and joints. The peak incidence occurs between the age of 30 and 40 years, which overlaps with the typical reproductive period of women. Because of comorbidities that can accom- pany psoriasis, including metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular involvement, and major depressive disorders, the condition is a complex one. The role of hormones during pregnancy in the lesion dynamics of psoriasis is unclear, and it is important to resolve the implications of this pathology during pregnancy are. Furthermore, treating pregnant women who have psoriasis represents a challenge as most drugs generally prescribed for this pathology are contraindicated in pregnancy because of teratogenic effects. This review covers the state of the art in psoriasis associated with pregnancy. Careful pregnancy monitoring in moderate-to-severe psoriasis vulgaris is required given the high risk of related complications in pregnancy, including pregnancy-induced hypertensive disorders, low birth weight for gestational age, and gestational diabetes. Topical corticosteroids are safe during pregnancy but effective only for localised forms of psoriasis.
