    Author: Ishii N, Ono H, Kawaguchi T, Nakajima H.
    Journal: Dermatologica; 1991; 183(2):146-9. PubMed ID: 1743376.
    Abstract:
    Dermatomyositis is a rare disease complicating pregnancy. We treated a patient in whom two pregnancies were complicated by dermatomyositis. In the first of the two gestations, a mild form of the disease arose in the last trimester. In the second gestation, the disease was inactive following treatment with 0.3 mg/kg/day prednisolone. Both the mother and two children have since been doing well.
