title: [Neuroinfections and pregnancy].
abstract: The course of neuroinfections (both acute and chronic) associated with pregnancy was studied in a series of 156 women. The patients were divided into two groups. Out of the 36 women comprising the first group who fell ill during gestation, 12 had a fulminant course of the disease with five lethal cases, 24 women had a subacute course and pregnancy progressed to a normal delivery. The second group included 120 patients who conceived in the presence of the residual manifestations of the previous cerebral arachnoiditis, arachnoencephalitis, encephalitis and diencephalitis. The authors describe the clinical course of the residual forms of neuroinfections in relation to pregnancy, parturition and puerperium and offer recommendations on the obstetrical management of pregnancy complicated by neuroinfections.
