Introduction:
Since December 2019, cases of pneumonia have been reported in Wuhan,
China. The number of cases increased rapidly in January 2020, leading
the WHO to declare a public health emergency of international concern.
In March 2020, due to the international spread and severity of the
cases, the WHO qualified the situation as a COVID-19 pandemic (1).
Confirmed cases of COVID-19 vary clinically, from asymptomatic to
severe. Pregnancy has been classified as a risk factor predisposing to
critical forms of the disease (2).
Since the beginning of the pandemic, considerable effort has been
devoted to the subject, in order to bring out the epidemiological and
clinical data on maternal-fetal evolution, as well as the protocols
adapted to the different forms of the disease in this category of
patients. The aim of this study is to clarify the association between
COVID-19 and pregnancy through a series of 45 cases recorded in the
gynecology-obstetrics department at the Mohammed V Military Training
Hospital (HMIMV) and to review the literature on the subject.
