OROZCO ALCALA, José Javier; SARMIENTO LIZARRAGA, Elizabeth; LUGO SANCHEZ, Rosalba del Rocío y CHAVEZ PAREDES, Victor Manuel. Coincidence of Rhupus and pregnancy. Case report. Ginecol. obstet. Méx. [online]. 2023, vol.91, n.9, pp.711-714. Epub 17-Nov-2023. ISSN 0300-9041. https://doi.org/10.24245/gom.v91i9.8604.
BACKGROUND:
Although systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis are sufficiently described diseases, the association of these is not, and is called rhupus, which refers to the clinical manifestation resulting from both diseases masked, making diagnosis and treatment difficult.
CLINICAL CASE:
37-year-old patient who started with a clinical picture with features of systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis 16 years ago. She was found to have alterations in laboratory studies and radiological findings that supported the diagnosis of rheupus. Therefore, the evolution of this condition is documented, which coincides with and after her pregnancy.
CONCLUSIONS:
The simultaneous occurrence of systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, even though it was reported decades ago, is a rare disease in frequency, so there is scarce information on rhupus alone and even more so in coincidence with pregnancy.
