Article Abstract
A follow-up of 52 pregnant women with diffuse polyps of the colon showed that gestation deteriorated the course of diffuse polyposis and provoked the appearance of the first symptoms of this disease. Diffuse polyposis had virtually no effect on the course of pregnancy and labor. Gestation eventuated in normal full-term delivery in 22 patients, in preterm delivery in 4, in 3 patients cesarean section was performed, in 1 the fetus was extracted with obstetrical forceps, 1 delivery finished with manual detachment and extraction of the placenta. Late spontaneous abortions occurred in 4 women, induced abortions were carried out in various periods in 68 women. Previous extensive resections of the colon undertaken for diffuse polyposis were not a contraindication to surgical delivery.
