A 36-year-old Japanese woman with intestinal Behcet's disease was admitted to our hospital due to a recurrent ileocecal ulcer. Because infliximab (IFX) showed secondary failure, IFX was switched to adalimumab (ADA). After the third injection of ADA, she was unexpectedly 4-weeks pregnant. ADA was continued until 20 gestational weeks. Remission of the disease activity was maintained during pregnancy, and the birth was uneventful. The ileocecal ulcer disappeared after her delivery. ADA was detected in the umbilical blood after 119 days from the last infusion. The placental transition and timing of neonatal vaccination should be considered in cases of pregnancy with TNF antibody therapy.

A 41-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was admitted to our hospital due to a fever at 35 weeks of pregnancy. Laboratory testing revealed a low platelet count and elevated liver enzymes. Emergency Caesarean section was performed due to the risk of SLE exacerbation or hemolytic anemia, elevated liver enzyme, and low platelet count syndrome. Based on the blood culture results, the patient was diagnosed with Listeria monocytogenes bacteremia. She was treated with ampicillin and eventually recovered, and the neonate did not have any complications. Pregnant women with SLE are at risk of complications. Listeriosis should be monitored for and, if found, managed appropriately.
