The course of the SAPHO syndrome during pregnancy.

Abstract

In this report, we describe a case of a pregnancy in a 29 year old patient suffering from a new syndrome, the SAPHO syndrome (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis). The SAPHO syndrome improved considerably during the course of this pregnancy and treatment with indomethacin ceased during gestation.
