Among 94 women with diagnosed "primary" gestosis during pregnancy, 67 patients demonstrated (3-6 months after delivery) chronic glomerulonephritis (25 women) or chronic pyelonephritis (28 women) or hypertension caused by others than nephrologic reasons. "Primary" gestosis was diagnosed correctly only in 29% cases. The most often reason of "secondary" gestosis was undiagnosed chronic nephropathy before and during pregnancy. Obtained results confirm other data informing that "primary" gestosis is a rare phenomenon.
