Abstract

Evaluation of the course of pregnancy, delivery and the condition of the newborn infant in mothers after an antireflux operation performed in childhood has revealed differences to the disadvantage of women operated on after the age of ten. This is shown by a significantly more frequent incidence of EH gestosis and urinary tract infections. Pregnancy intensifies the already existing renal insufficiency but does not adversely affect an efficient kidney. No significant differences have been observed in fertility, way of delivery termination, and the newborn’s condition between the studied and the control groups.
