Abstract
Presented are three patients who have delivered full-term normal infants after renal transplants from living related donors. One patient had a placenta previa with excessive vaginal hemorrhage. Another patient manifested preeclampsia. Management of these and other complications should be aggressive and thorough with special precautions taken to preserve graft function. In our patients, pregnancy was not harmful to the renal transplant. No fetal complications from immunosuppressive drugs were noted and the patients' dosage requirements did not change. Counseling regarding family planning is essential in patients with renal transplant.
