[Progressive systemic sclerosis and pregnancy].
Nine cases with the association of systemic progressive sclerosis and pregnancy at Instituto Nacional de Perinatología, from 1984 to 1994, are presented. All the patients were referred with the confirmed diagnosis by histopatological study. The variety CREST type was seen in three patients. Average age of patients was 29.2 +/- 5.4 years. Acute hypertensive disease of pregnancy; pre-term birth; and retarded intrauterine growth, were the most frequent complications. Most of the pregnancies were resolved by abdominal via, due to maternal and fetal indications. No maternal deaths.
