Objective. To systematize the current medical knowledge and experience in the management of pregnancy and delivery in patients with mesenchymal dysplasias (Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Rendu-Osler syndrome).
Material and methods. The paper includes the data of foreign investigations and medical guidelines for this problem, which have been published in the past 5 years.
Results. The paper describes the molecular bases of each syndrome, diagnostic criteria, and their clinical manifestations in various organs and systems: musculoskeletal and cardiovascular systems, the organ of vision, etc. Such patients during pregnancy are at extremely high risk for life-threatening complications.
Conclusion. A successful outcome of pregnancy requires early diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach throughout during pregnancy and delivery.
