Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis is a phacomatosis with dominant autosomal transmission and variable expression. The authors propose an analysis of six cases of Recklinghausen's disease associated to the pregnancy. From these observations and review of the literature, they release the particularities of this association. The appearance of high blood pressure seems more frequent at the patients affected by Recklinghausen's disease than in the unhurt population. A disease prevention of hypertensive complications by the use of low dose of Aspirin can be proposed in the presence of gravitiy's criteria.
