RESUMO
The perinatal mortality rate among 151 pregnant diabetics was 9.3 per cent, which is less than that reported elsewhere. This is attributable to strict control of maternal blood glucose levels, planned delivery at 38 weeks and a liberal use of Caesarean Section. Our results defend the concept of delivery of the infant of the diabetic mother not later than the 38th week of pregnancy, since 60 per cent of perinatal deaths occurred beyond this period of gestation (AU)
