Abstract
Spontaneous evolution of autoimmune hepatitis during pregnancy is not well known, nor are its consequences on pregnancy evolution. Immunosuppressive treatment during pregnancy is sometimes necessary but the long- and short-term consequences are unrecognized. We relate a patient's disease with autoimmune hepatitis and cirrhosis and three consecutive pregnancies with different obstetrical and medical complications.
