title: [Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) in women during pregnancy].
abstract: Four women with SSPE during pregnancy were observed. The influence of pregnancy on the course of illness was in all patients unfavourable: the disease exacerbated, what could be explained by physiological immunosuppression connected with gestation. Delivery (in three cases by sectio caesarea) had no beneficial influence on the fatal course of SSPE. In two cases intrauterine necrosis of foetus took place in the 8th and 20th week from the beginning of SSPE. In other two cases healthy children were born. One of them does not exhibit any neurological abnormalities during the first 5 years of life.
