Introduction
| Pregnancy in women with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoingdialysis treatment is uncommon but increasingly observed overthe last few years 1]. The outcome in pregnancies in dialysedwomen is greatly influenced by maternal risk factors. Duringgestation, various risks may appear including the mother's fluidoverload, hypertension, anaemia and an increased risk for fetaland perinatal complications such as neonatal mortality, prematurityand small-for-gestational-age 2,3]. Here, we report on a 40-year-oldfemale patient who developed ESRD due to an extended Stanford-B-aneurysmof the aorta 1 year prior to conception. Nonetheless, the childwas delivered successfully by caesarian section after 31 weeksof gestation.
