[Agnogenic myeloid metaplasia in pregnancy. Case report].

UNLABELLED: Idiopathic myelofibrosis is a rare myeloproliferative disorder characterized by excessive accumulation of connective tissue in the bone marrow in association with anemia, splenomegaly and extramedullary hematopoiesis. A rare case of pregnancy in a patient with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia who carried a term pregnancy is described. In spite of the increased perinatal risks, a favorable outcome was possible with close antepartum surveillance.

CONCLUSION

Idiopathic myelofibrosis was once thought to be a contraindication to pregnancy. With careful management, successful pregnancies can be achieved.
