  • Title: Takayasu's syndrome in pregnancy.
    Author: Hauth JC, Cunningham FG, Young BK.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1977 Sep; 50(3):373-5. PubMed ID: 19719.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of Takayasu's syndrome in pregnancy are presented. The obstetric courses of these women are compared with those of 7 others described in the literature. Symptoms of this rare condition may respond variably during pregnancy. Of the 9 women, 5 had worsening of their symptoms during gestation while 4 had milder symptoms than they had had prior to pregnancy. The best therapy is rest. Vaginal delivery is recommended and cesarean section should be reserved for obstetric indications.
