The purpose of this study was to investigate the perinatal morbidity and mortality in all the diabetic pregnancies seen at the HGO-"LCA" from January 1992 to December 1993. In that period 186 women (mean age 31 yr) were diagnosed as having diabetes during pregnancy: 54% of them had DMG, 40% DM-II and 6% DM-I, with serum glucose concentration of 133 +/- 41 mg/dL. Neonatal morbidity was given by macrosomia (17%), prematurity (14%), hyperbilirubinemia (11%), hypoglycemia (8%), congenital malformation (6%) and hypocalcemia (4%). Perinatal mortality was 5.3%. The principal causes of maternal morbidity were preeclampsia (17%), polyhydramnios (16%), pyelonephritis (4%) and ketoacidosis (0.05%). Cesarean section was performed in 62% of all diabetic patients. There was not any maternal death. This results showed a high perinatal morbidity-mortality in pregnancies complicated by diabetes mellitus which reclaim a better metabolic control during gestation period.
