Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We have studied the infants in fifty pregnancies affected by pemphigoid gestationis (herpes gestationis). There was a significant increase in the frequency of infants that were 'small for dates'. As such infants have a raised mortality and morbidity it follows that in pemphigoid gestationis the fetal prognosis is impaired. In view of this it is essential that patients with pemphigoid gestationis are delivered in maternity units which have facilities for intensive care of the newborn.
