title: Successful pregnancy in a renal transplant recipient taking cyclosporin A.
abstract: A 27 year old woman with a fourth cadaveric renal transplant successfully completed a 33 week pregnancy whilst taking cyclosporin A and prednisolone.

The infant, delivered electively at 33 weeks, was small for gestational age but otherwise normal.
