Abstract
Purpose These recommendations issued by the AGG (Section Maternal Diseases in Pregnancy) were developed as a rapid orientation on maternal rheumatic diseases for counselling and disease management in pregnancy and breastfeeding. Methods The standard literature, consensus and position papers, guidelines and recommendations by other specialist associations were evaluated by a task force of the Section and summarized in these recommendations following a joint consensus process. Recommendations This paper provides an orientating overview of the physiology, pathophysiology and definitions of rheumatic diseases which is relevant for gynecologists and obstetricians. The recommendations focus on the maternal, fetal and neonatal diagnostic workup in cases with underlying maternal rheumatic disease.
