Obstetrics and Gynecology PG Focus Series: Autoimmune Disorders in Pregnancy – Clinical Guide

Medical residency is an intensive period of training where newly graduated doctors gain practical experience in their chosen specialties under the guidance of experienced physicians. This also is a challenging time, where young minds have to strike a balance between patient care, improving their clinical acumen as well as learning the theoretical aspects of their subject. Considering this, in order to aid young minds, Dr Komal N Chavan and Dr Niranjan Chavan manifested their brainchild, in the form of a series of books for the postgraduate trainees. Autoimmune Disorders in Pregnancy represents a complex and often challenging aspect of obstetric care. As autoimmune diseases can affect not only maternal health but also fetal development, it is crucial for clinicians, especially postgraduate students in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, to have a thorough understanding of both the pathophysiology and clinical management of these conditions during pregnancy. The intersection of immunology, obstetrics, and maternal-fetal medicine requires an integrated approach to ensure optimal outcomes for both mother and baby.
