Objective:
To study the outcome of pregnancy in overt diabetes with retinopathy and the changes of retinopathy during pregnancy.
Method:
Retrospective study was made on 49 pregnancies with overt diabetes from 1981 to 1995.
Results:
Maternal complications and perinatal morbidity were higher in pregnancies with retinopathy but there were no significant differences between those with and without retinopathy. Retinopathy progressed during pregnancy i 31.1% of the parturients.
Conclusion:
Pregnancies with overt diabetes complicated with retinopathy are not the indications for terminating pregnancy, but the changes of retinopathy should be carefully monitored during pregnancy.
