Abstract
The probability of pregnancy in women with acromegaly is relatively low, however modern therapy approaches make it possible to achieve disease compensation and improve reproductive function.World expert’s experience in managing pregnancy in patients with acromegaly is currently insufficient. Pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk for both mother and fetus due to the possible growth of the tumor, the development of metabolic complications (diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension).This article describes a case of a successful pregnancy in a woman with active acromegaly occurring after somatostatin analogues and cabergoline treatment.
