title: [Diagnosis and therapy of hyperthyroidism in pregnancy].
abstract: In pregnancy hyperthyroidism occurs with a prevalence of 0.04-0.2%. It occurs even less frequently de novo in previously undiagnosed patients. Within a short period of time we treated 3 patients, who also developed signs of pre-eclampsia. Specific principles of the management during pregnancy are explained.
