Pak J Obstet Gynaecol Jan ;12(1,2):45-50.

A retrospective study was carried out in Unit-I of Lady Willingdon Hospital to find out the obstetrical and perinatal outcome in gestational diabetes. Period of study was one year from Jan. 1998 to Dec. 1998. Total number of deliveries were 3222 and diabetic patients who delivered in Unit-I were 162 i.e., 5% of the total deliveries. 67.9% were booked and 32.0% were non-booked. Conclusion: Adequate control of diabetes during and even before pregnancy leads to favourable outcome. Better results in booked cases are in example of such care.
