  • Title: [A course of pregnancy with herpes gestationis (author's transl)].
    Author: Kamradt B, Ring A.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1976 Feb; 36(2):128-31. PubMed ID: 56286.
    Abstract:
    A 24-years old III.-para and III.-gravida was hospitalized in the 36th week of gravidity, with premature labour and distinct symptoms of herpes gestationis. It is reported in literature that the clinical picture of herpes gestationis is combined with a high rate of abortion and fetal anomalies. Therefore an intensive prenatal super vision was carried through with daily cardiotocographic controls and checkings of total estrogens in 24-hours-urine, also measurements of Alpha-Fetoproteins, human placenta lactogen and serumoxytocinase. After inducting labour because of maternal indication the patient gave birth to a healthy female infant (3720 g, 50 cm) with Apgar 10 in the 39th week of gravidity. The investigation of the placenta and all biochemical parameters did not point to an interference of gravidity. The present literature is discussed. Some authors doubt that herpes gestationis is met with a high rate of abortion, stillbirth and fetal anomalies as is assumed till now.
