title: [Obstetric management of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. A case report].
abstract: A rare case of pregnancy in a patient with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome is described. The arterio-venous anomalies in this patient originally occurred in her left leg. Her pregnancy was uneventful. A Cesarean section was performed at term. There were no signs of intravascular coagulation or cardiac decompensation. Prophylactic anticoagulant treatment was given during the 3rd trimester and into the early puerperium The clinical course and the risks of a pregnancy with this condition are discussed.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome was once thought to be a contraindication to pregnancy. With careful management, successful pregnancies can be achieved.
