Abstract

Pathologists provide valuable input in the dermatological care of pregnant patients in various contexts. This article provides dermatopathology updates on cutaneous changes associated with pregnancy, organized based on the following classification system: physiological skin changes in pregnancy, specific dermatoses of pregnancy, dermatoses modified in pregnancy, and skin neoplasms in pregnancy. Awareness of the impact of pregnancy on the skin by pathologists is important, as this is an opportunity to contribute to diagnostic precision in this patient population.
