ABSTRACT
Introduction: Klippel Trenaunay Weber syndrome is a congenital vascular disease, of unknown causes, characterized by flat hemangiomas, overgrowth of bones and soft tissue, and varicose veins. When associated with pregnancy, it increases maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality.
Objective: To describe two clinical cases of pregnant women with this syndrome, which were treated at the Ramón González Coro Gynecobstetric Teaching Hospital in Havana, Cuba.
Methods: A descriptive, retrospective study of two cases using the information collection technique, analysis of the medical history, and search for updated literature. It was carried out in accordance with existing regulations and ethical principles for human research. Patients were not required to offer their informed consent.
Case reports: The two cases presented were pregnant adolescents who were followed up in a multidisciplinary consultation and underwent caesarean section at 38 weeks, the first due to risk of bleeding as result of pelvic varicosities and the second due to neurological indication. In both cases, female newborns, 2620 and 3200 grams respectively, were obtained in good conditions.
Conclusions: Correct anamnesis must be carried out during prenatal controls to identify the risk factors that are related to this entity, which is rare, but is related to high morbidity. Team action and comprehensive evaluation of these cases, by a specialized group of angiologists, gynecologists, anesthetists, surgeons, clinicians, and other specialties, are essential to achieve an optimal result.
