[Outcome of the mother and baby delivered by cesarean section in pregnancy induced hypertension. Analysis of 487 cases].
We analyzed the outcome of mother and baby in 487 cases of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) delivered by Cesarean section (CS). The indication for CS in 70 cases was simply PIH (14.4%) and 6 out of 9 antepartum eclampsia had CS. There was no maternal or fetal death. The authors suggest that CS should be done whenever eclampsia could not be put under control in order to save both mother and baby. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) was lower in the CS group than in the vaginally delivered group. No late PPH occurred in our CS cases. The incidence of IUGR was 30.4%. Of these IUGR cases 43 were delivered by CS. No stillbirth occurred. The number of neonatal anoxia was less than in the vaginally delivered group (P less than 0.10).
