J. O. CONNOLLY*, J. G. LANHAM{dagger} and M. R. PARTRIDGE{dagger}

Pregnancy has not hitherto been known to influence the course of Churg-Strauss syndrome. We describe a case where relapse occurred in four successive pregnancies. The disease proved fatal in the last pregnancy when aggressive treatment failed to reverse fulminant cardiac disease.

KEY WORDS: Churg-Strauss syndrome, Pregnancy, Cardiac involvement
