TI  - Obstetric and neonatal outcomes of adolescent pregnancy
AB  - OBJECTIVE: We performed a retrospective study to evaluate adolescent pregnancies as for gestational complications, and prinatal outcomes. METHODS: We evaluated 341 pregnants whose data we could reach regarding gestational, and perinatal complications. RESULTS: In our study group anemia (35.4%), preeclampsia/eclampsia (1.45%), premature membrane rupture (1.4%), intrauterine growth retardation (3.81%), and instrumental delivery (0.3%) were seen in indicated incidence rates. CONCLUSION: In our retrospective study, we found lower our complication rates in adolescent age group when compared with the adult age group, and other studies performed in adolescents. Since our hospital is a tertiary health care institute, and we monitorized our patients closely, our incidence rates can be better than those cited in the literature. As long as proper antenatal surveillance is employed, adolescent mothers do not seem to have increased risk for most of obstetric complications
