Progress in medical disorders in pregnancy has inevitably occurred over a wide front. Highlights of the past year include the use of real-time ultrasound rather than venography to diagnose deep vein thrombosis in pregnancy, the establishment of Doppler ultrasound for noninvasive measurement of cardiac output, better awareness of the risk to the fetus if the mother has immune thrombocytopenic purpura, the description of the maturation of fetal thyroid function, the problems of in utero treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in the fetus, and an appreciation of the fetal risk if maternal phenylketonuria is not managed by strict dieting in pregnancy.

Progress in the management of medical disorders of pregnancy has occurred in many areas. Only salient features are reviewed. The pathophysiology of maternal hyperglycemia in diabetes and its effects on the fetus are explored. Antiphospholipid antibodies, implicated in adverse pregnancy sequelae, come under closer scrutiny in terms of management and correlation with outcome. Studies defining a need for a strict diet for optimal neonatal outcome are presented regarding maternal phenylketonuria. Coagulopathies including protein C deficiency and deep venous thrombosis are reviewed for their impact on pregnancy. Uncommon disorders including cerebrovascular accidents, ureteric obstruction, and myocardial infarction are discussed in relation to management and outcome in pregnancy.
