Dermatomyositis(DM) is the classic example of an inflammatory disease that has both cutaneous and systemic manifestations. An association with pregnancy is very uncommon. Glickman described the first case of DM associated with pregnancy in 1958. Since then a few reports of DM cases associated with pregnancy were published. This is the report of a female patient who had a previously established diagnosis of DM, and then became pregnant during the remission stage of DM. The DM recurred in 33 week of gestation. Because a Pregnancy it involves alterations in the immune responses of the patients, it may lead to a recrudescence or aggrevation of DM. The pregnancy should be considered a high risk for a recrudescence and aggrevation of DM. Careful monitoring of DM patients and with pregnancy should be warranted.
