Pregnancy after bariatric surgery in women with rheumatic diseases and association with adverse birth outcomes.

CONCLUSION: Our study shows that women with ARD already have a high occurrence of several adverse birth outcomes, and this was not further increased by a history of bariatric surgery. The infants born to women with a history of ARD and bariatric surgery were admitted to the NICU significantly more than the infants born to women with an ARD and no history of bariatric surgery.
