Abstract :
<p> Introduction:- Jaundice in pregnancy, though it is rare, occurs in approximately one in 1500 pregnancies and has potentially deleterious effect on fetal health also. . Objectives: To study the fetal outcome associated with jaundice in pregnancy. Methods: 50 pregnant women with jaundice in pregnancy were included in the study. A thorough history, detailed clinical examination and all relevant investigation s were carried out in the beginning. The fetal outcome was studied in detail. Results: perinatal mortality among the fetuses was 26%, of which 10 % were still birth. Out of 47 delivered babies 40.4% babies had complications in the form of intrauterine fetal death (10.6%) followed by respiratory distress syndrome (8.5%). There was significant association between etiologies of jaundice with fetal outcome. Highest mortality was noted in dengue and leptospirosis Conclusion: Jaundice in pregnancy is associated with high perinatal mortality as well as morbidity even in a tertiary referral center</p>
