title: [AIDS and pregnancy. Management of the seropositive pregnant female].
abstract: The population of women, HIV positive, and susceptible to become pregnant, increases with time. Pregnancy must be contra-indicated in seropositive women. A termination of pregnancy must be performed in the first trimester and a therapeutic abortion may be offered but left to the mother's decision. Delivery must be carried out via natural passages in the absence of obstetrical dystocia. Nursing is contra-indicated. A number of precautions must be taken by the medical and para-medical personnel during obstetrical procedures.
