Resumo

A patologia respiratória é relativamente frequente durante a gravidez. Um terço das grávidas sofrem exacerbação da asma. O tromboembolismo pulmonar é cerca de 5 vezes mais frequente na gravidez. As pneumonias bacterianas, virais e fúngicas são mal toleradas pela grávida, provocando significativa morbilidade materno-fetal, insuficiência respiratória, baixo peso ao nascer ou prematuridade. A tuberculose, se não for tratada, pode aumentar em 4 vezes a mortalidade materna e em 9 vezes o parto pré-termo. A gravidez está contra-indicada em mulheres com fibrose quística e função pulmonar grave. Apesar dos progressos terapêuticos, a hipertensão pulmonar continua a estar associada a valores superiores a 30% de morbilidade e mortalidade materno-fetal. Aproximadamente 1 em 1000–1500 gravidezes é complicada por neoplasia maligna materna. O cancro do pulmão nas grávidas coloca desafios terapêuticos importantes devido às elevadas taxas de mortalidade.

Abstract

Respiratory pathology can be relatively frequent during pregnancy. One third of pregnant woman may experience worsening of their asthma condition. Pulmonary tromboembolism is 5 times more frequent in pregnancy. Bacterial, viral and fungal pneumonias are baddly tolerated during pregnancy, provoking mother-foetal morbidity, respiratory insufficiency, low born-weight or prematurity. Non-treated tuberculosis may increase maternal mortality and preterm birth by 4 and 9 times respectively. Pregnancy is counter-indicated in women with cystic fibrosis and severe pulmonary function. Despite therapeutic progresses already made, pulmonary hypertension is associated to over 30% of mother-foetal morbidity and mortality. Approximately 1 in 1,000-1,500 pregnancies is affected by mother cancer. High rates of lung cancer morbility in women bring new and important challenges to therapy.
