In this report, a successful management of pregnancy in patient with severe morbid obesity with weight 175kg and overt diabetes and chronic hypertension was introduced.CASE: A 31-year-old pregnant woman with history of overt diabetes and hypertension with weight 175kg and a body mass index of 64 kg/m2 was admitted to Ayatollah Roohani hospital of Babol, Iran. Her diabetes and hypertension well controlled. She was scheduled for a cesarean section (C/S) at 37 gestational weeks. Spinal anesthesia and C/S by Pfannenstiel incision was applied for this patient. Delivery outcome was a healthy female neonate with 3300 gr weight and Apgar score of 9-10. The mother was discharged with good condition. There were no complications at 4-month follow-up after surgery and the patients hypertension was controlled and need for insulin decreased. CONCLUSION: Because of high maternal and fetal neonatal complications in morbid obesity, we consider good prenatal care for her medical problems and appropriate timed fetal well being test.Z Basirat,M KashifardSH YazdaniBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlemorbid obesitypregnancycomplicationsMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 14, Iss 5, Pp 92-95 (2012)
