Werner's syndrome: incidental finding during pregnancy.

[werner syndrome]

Werner 's syndrome (WS ) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder , characterised by skin changes prematurely during adolescence . An unusual case of WS was found in a 27 -year -old pregnant woman who presented to the hospital with a history of uncontrolled hypertension at 32 weeks of gestation . All clinical features corresponding to WS (early aging of skin , hair loss , blurred vision and diabetes type 2 ) appeared to match with the prospective diagnosis , which was confirmed later with genetic testing . The pregnancy became complicated due to oligohydramnios and therefore a caesarean section was carried out in order to preserve the fetus . Despite all implemented efforts , the patient died intraoperative as a result of cardiac arrest and its complications . Successfully , the newborn survived and it was further investigated to exclude this condition .
