PY - 2022 T2 - Williams Obstetrics, 26e AB - Four dermatoses considered unique to pregnancy are pemphigoid gestationis (PG), pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy (PUPPP), atopic eruption of pregnancy (AEP), and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. Descriptions of these are given in Table 65-1. Their gross appearance can be similar to each other or to other skin disorders, and pruritus is a common feature. Of these four, adverse fetal outcomes are linked only with PG and intrahepatic cholestasis. The latter is discussed in detail in Chapter 58 (p. 1032). It generally lacks primary skin lesions, but pruritus is usually associated with abnormally elevated serum bile acid levels and mildly increased hepatic transaminase levels.
