Gravidez em adolescentes com dermatomiosite juvenil (DMJ)

Abstract: RESUMOCom a melhora do prognóstico nos pacientes com dermatomiosite juvenil (DMJ), as crianças tornam-se adolescentes com possibilidade de início da vida sexual e risco de engravidar. No período entre 1983 e 2004, 4.638 pacientes foram seguidos em nosso serviço, entre os quais 117 (86/74% do sexo feminino) apresentaram o diagnóstico de DMJ. Entre as pacientes com DMJ, três engravidaram durante o acompanhamento. A idade da primeira atividade sexual variou entre 15 (caso 1) e 14 anos (casos 2 e 3). As gestações,… Show more

“…Therefore, the use of condoms in all sexual relationships should be emphasized when orienting IIM patients regarding contraception. 13,29 As for females, unprotected sex has increased the incidence of pregnancies, as demonstrated in our patients with JDM 29 and by a recent multicenter Brazilian study on juvenile SLE involving 12 Pediatric Rheumatology Services in four states. 32 It is interesting that both IIM patients and individuals in the control group started their sexual activity early in life (median 15.7 years versus 16 years).…”

“…26,27 On the other hand, studies evaluating the sexual function of IIM patients are rare, except for reports of pregnancy in females with those disorders. [28][29][30] In the present study, 12% of the population of patients with myopathy had sexual dysfunction, with a predominance in middle age Results expressed in numbers (%) or median (variation); P = pubic hair; G = genitalia; R = right; L = left; US scan = ultrasound; FSH = follicle-stimulating hormone; LH = luteinizing hormone; *patients with azoospermia (absence of spermatozoids) or teratozoospermia (abnormal spermatozoid morphology) associated with oligozoospermia (low spermatozoid concentration) and/or astenozoospermia (low spermatozoid motility).…”

“…O tratamento medicamentoso inclui o uso de corticosteróides como droga inicial, e muitas vezes está associado a outras medicações como metotrexato, azatioprina, ciclosporina, ciclofosfamida e/ou gamaglobulina endovenosa 8,28 , principalmente nos casos refratários aos corticosteróides, com alto risco de morbi-mortalidade (calcinoses, ulcerações cutâneas, envolvimento do trato gastrintestinal e doença pulmonar intersticial). Atualmente têm-se utilizado também os agentes biológicos anti-TNF (infliximabe e etanercepte) nos casos resistentes aos tratamentos anteriores 29 . Com a melhora do prognóstico e sobrevida dos pacientes com DMJ, novos aspectos devem ser considerados no acompanhamento destes pacientes 30 .…”
