The aim is to analyze the data of modern literature on etiopathogenetic factors, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the hepatobiliary system in pregnant women in order to improve the tactics of pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period in such women in order to reduce complications in both the mother and child.
The relevance of the problem of hepatobiliary system diseases throughout the world is described. The etiopathogenetic factors that cause the occurrence of the disease are considered. Attention is focused on the complications caused by diseases of the hepatobiliary system in pregnant women. The effectiveness of methods for diagnosing and treating pregnant women with diseases of the hepatobiliary system is analyzed. The impact of diseases of the hepatobiliary system on the course of pregnancy and childbirth is considered, in particular, the risk of miscarriage, gestosis, premature birth, placental complications, fetal hypoxia, postpartum hemorrhage, and other obstetric problems.
Conclusions. Despite modern diagnostics and pharmacological means, the problem of managing pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period in pregnant women with diseases of the hepatobiliary system remains complex and is the cause of complications of both pregnancy and childbirth, leading to the impaired condition of newborns and subsequent development of children, and most importantly remains the cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The presented results of the studies emphasize the need to optimize the tactics of managing pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period in pregnant women with diseases of the hepatobiliary system.
