“…There is also a higher risk of cesarean deliveries and postpartum hemorrhages (Hadid et al 2015). In women who are pregnant and have advanced pulmonary disease or extrapulmonary lesions, exacerbation of the disease can manifest with hypercalcemia as well as respiratory and/or heart failure that is secondary to restrictive disease (Ellafi and Valeyre, 1999, Subramanian et al, 2004). …”

Certain dermatoses that present during pregnancy have a predilection for populations with skin of color (SOC). Additionally, certain systemic diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus tend to be more aggressive during pregnancy and confer worse prognoses in women with SOC. The purpose of this review is to highlight the unique implications of selected diseases during pregnancy as it relates to SOC. Dermatologists should be vigilant for the unique clinical variations of dermatological conditions in patients of color who are pregnant to ensure correct diagnoses and optimize treatment outcomes.

Disorders of calcium metabolism, especially hypercalcemia and hypercalceuria, are common in sarcoidosis. They are caused by extra renal unsuppressed production of 1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D at the level of the sarcoid granuloma. Hormonal changes during pregnancy have a physiological synergistic effect on this mechanism, which is primarily parathyroid hormone (PTH) dependant. However, the combination of primary hypoparathyroidism with hypocalcemia and sarcoidosis is rare. Di George syndrome, is a dysmorphic disorder characterised by aplasia/hypoplasia of thymus and parathyroid glands in addition to aortic arch anamolies and facial dysmorphia.
