Abstract

To study the structure and significance of comorbidities and polymorbidity in maternal death. Sixty-five autopsy protocols of maternal deaths in the Novosibirsk Region in the period of 1994 to 2018 were analyzed. Extragenital diseases are the leading diseases in the nosological structure in maternal mortality. Preeclampsia/exlampsia and obstetric hemorrhages lost their leading positions. The increasing role of extragenital pathology in the structure of maternal mortality is due to many factors, such as a larger number of comorbidities and polymorbidity, in pregnant women. Infectious diseases, benign and malignant tumors, and diseases of the heart and blood vessels are the main diseases in the structure of extragenital diseases.
