ABSTRACT
Pre-eclampsia's spectrum and prevalence in pregnancies resulting from assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have attempted to be correlated over the past few years. The purpose of the article is to descriptively review the literature on the connection between preeclampsia and medically assisted reproductive techniques. 16 articles were included in our minireview following a combined search through Pubmed. The majority of studies agree that, compared to pregnancies conceived naturally, IVF/ICSI singleton and multiple pregnancies are associated with a higher risk of hypertensive problems during pregnancy. Oocyte donor singleton pregnancies are more likely to result in hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. Also, frozen embryos have a higher chance of preeclampsia than fresh embryos. It is considered appropriate to develop clinical practice guidelines for women who have achieved pregnancy through ART techniques. Hence, women undergoing ART techniques should be informed of the increased risk of preeclampsia.
