| Abstract: | PURPOSE: Epilepsy in females of child bearing age belongs to a special population that require specific interventions, since pregnancy can result in high obstetric risks. The aim of the study was the evaluation of the out-comes in pregnancy in Maltese women with epilepsy. METHOD: The medical and obstetric data records of mothers with epilepsy (PWE) who gave birth were reviewed from the 120 Monthly Birth Registers, 1996–2005. Data obtained was statistically analyzed and compared to that of the whole population. [excerpt] |
