    PURPOSE: we report a small series of pregnant women who underwent gastric bypass surgery for severe obesity, with a review of the literature on this topic. METHODS: five consecutive cases of pregnancy after gastroplasty between 2001 and 2004 were evaluated, and clinical, laboratory and therapeutic features were considered. Patients were 30 to 34 years old and all had been submitted to gastroplasty by the Capella technique. The outcomes for both the pregnant woman and the fetus were evaluated. A search of the English language literature was done through MEDLINE and Web of Science databases with the following terms: gastroplasty, gastric bypass surgery, bariatric surgery, and pregnancy. RESULTS: all 5 pregnancies were singleton. No major obstetric complications were observed and there were no premature or lowbirth weight infants. CONCLUSION: our data suggest that pregnancy following gastroplasty is safe for mother and fetus. However, since information about this topic is limited, further investigations are required to establish appropriate recommendations concerning the follow-up of these pregnancies.

    INTRODUCTION: adrenal hyperplasia is a common genetic disorder and 95% of the cases are due to a 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Clinical presentation varies from life-threatening salt-losing adrenal hyperplasia to simple androgenic states, which can be of late-onset and very similar to polycystic ovary syndrome. Diagnosis is usually made by synthetic ACTH provocative tests but efforts are being made to simplify this investigation. OBJECTIVE: to evaluate basal 17-hydroxyprogesterone as a predictor of the provocative test for the diagnosis of late-onset congenial adrenal hyperplasia. METHODS: A total of 122 patients under clinical suspicion of diagnosis of late-onset congenial adrenal hyperplasia were included and retrospectively evaluated in the study. Such suspicion included signs and/or symptoms of hyperandrogenism (hirsutism, acne, oily skin, menstrual irregularity etc.). All the patients were submitted to the 0.25mg synthetic ACTH provocative test (Synacthen®). After resting for 60 minutes, the samples were taken in the basal time and 60 minutes after the administration of 0.25mg synthetic ACTH, in order to assay 17-hydroxiprogesteron, the venous access being kept through a heparinized catheter. Radioimmuoessay was the method used to accomplish the assay of seric 17-hydroxiprogesteron. The sensitivity and specificity of the basal 17-hydroxiprogesteron were measured, assessing several cutoff points. ROC curves were made to analyze the test performance, using the software Medcalc®. RESULTS: ROC curve analysis showed that the best cutoff point was 181 ng/dl, which was very similar to the most common recommendation of 200 ng/dl of the literature. The cutoff point of 200 ng/dl shows positive and negative predictive values of 75 and 100%, and accuracy of 98,4% as a diagnostic test for late-onset adrenal hyperplasia. CONCLUSIONS: considering our data, we suggest that all hyperandrogenic patients should start the investigation with basal 17-hydroxyprogesteron and in case it is above 181 ng/dl, then they should do the synthetic 17-hydroxyprogesteron provocative test.
