Abstract
The authors report an uncommon case of a pregnant woman with Turner syndrome (TS) whose pregnancy (with favorable outcome) was complicated by a pemphigoid gestationis in third trimester. This case points out that monitoring of these pregnancies is not limited to cardiac monitoring. Prevalence of auto-immune diseases is increased in the TS. Auto-immune dermatoses, such as pemphigoid gestationis, are one of the potential complications during pregnancy and should be known to practitioners.
