Abstrakt: The pregnancy supposes a deep change in the human physiology. Such changes can entail the appearance of diseases that secondarily affect the liver, like the hipermesis gravidica, HELLP syndrome, the cholestasis of pregnancy and the acute hepatic steatosis of the pregnancy. Within the acquired diseases, viral hepatitis are the first cause of jaundice in the pregnant. Hepatitis E can display a particularly aggressive course and also the Herpes simple virus. In relation to hepatitis C during the pregnancy, their presence does not affect the pregnancy, childbirth or perinatal health of the mother and Newborn. The main concern of the heath workers is to diminish the risk of transmission of the disease from the mother to newborn.
