Abstract
A 24-year-old primigravid woman with adult type Gaucher's disease was
admitted at 28 weeks of pregnancy. She was asthenic and the abdomen wa
s markedly protuberant due to hepatosplenomegaly. A conservative appro
ach with close monitorization of both mother and baby was planned. On
the 39th week of pregnancy a healthy female baby of 3000 g was deliver
ed via cesarean section. Apart from mild hematological complications,
the pregnancy, the delivery and the puerperium were uneventful.
