[Diabetic nephropathy and pregnancy].
Diabetes mellitus (or type 1) is a long-lasting disease (even twenty years or more) which causes kidney disease and, in the event of pregnancy, it can make differential diagnostic difficult even fort the most expert clinician. Metabolic changes caused by this type of diabetes (e.g., hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, ketoacidosis) and their difficult compensation can often lead to the onset of eclampsia or convulsion. The diagnostic suspicion of diabetes is supported by the finding of proteinuria, edema and hypertension that are strictly correlated with the evolution of diabetic disease and sometimes exist prior to pregnancy. This cas report focuses on the diagnostic importance of clotting tests, especially in clarifying diagnostic doubts.
