Management of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is the most common liver disease during pregnancy, characterized by otherwise unexplained pruritus in late second and third trimester of pregnancy and elevated bile acids and/or transaminases. ICP is associated with an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes for the fetus and the later development of hepatobiliary disease for the mother. Bile acids should be monitored throughout pregnancy since fetal risk is increased at serum bile acids >40 µmol/l. Management of ICP consists of treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid, which reduces pruritus. Early elective delivery is common practice but should be performed on an individualized basis as long as strong evidence supporting this practice is lacking. Mothers should be followed-up for normalization of liver function tests 6-12 weeks after delivery. Future research in large-scale studies is needed to address the impact of ursodeoxycholic acid and early elective delivery on fetal outcome.

[Two pregnant immigrant women with tuberculous peritonitis].
Two primigravid immigrant women aged 20 and 24 years were diagnosed with tuberculous peritonitis. The cases showed a significant delay in diagnosis. This was probably the cause for the premature birth and death of one foetus. The other child was diagnosed with congenital tuberculosis several months after birth and was successfully treated. The women were treated with the usual combination ofisoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol and pyrazinamide. The unfamiliarity with this clinical picture is a problem in countries with a low incidence of tuberculosis. In both cases the final diagnosis was made by the characteristic image seen during laparoscopy. An early diagnosis and also an early start with tuberculostatic drugs are important for a favourable outcome of pregnancy. Pregnancy and breast-feeding are no contraindications for treatment with tuberculostatic drugs.
