The lowest surviving birth weight infant delivered from a systemic lupus erythematosus mother with antiphospholipid syndrome

Abstract

We report the intact surviving case of a newborn with a birth weight of 412 g delivered from an active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) mother with antiphospholipid syndrome. A review of the literature revealed that our infant is the lowest surviving birth weight in newborns from SLE mothers to date.
