[Pregnancy after liver transplantation].
We present a case of pregnancy and delivery after liver transplantation. Even during pregnancy immunosuppression was maintained with cyclosporin (2 x 175 mg/day). The pregnancy was uneventful and there were no side effects of the cyclosporin therapy. At term we performed a cesarean section because of transverse presentation. A healthy child was born. Successful pregnancy is possible after liver transplantation, but team approach must be guaranteed.
