Abstract
Multiplesclerosis (MS) is an immunemediatedchronicinflammatorydiseasecharacterizedbyneuroinflammationandneurodegeneration of thecentralnervoussystem (CNS). Thecourseandtreatment of thediseasearethemostcommonquestionsaskedbypatientswith MS. Questionsconcerningtherelationship of MS withpregnancyandthepostpartumperiod, assistedreproductiontechnology, preand post-operativeproblemsandvaccinesarealsofrequentlyasked, andsome of theanswersarestillcontroversial. It is knownthat MS has noharmfuleffect on pregnancyorthefetus. The presence of MS is not an indicationtoterminatepregnancy, anddiseaseprogression is not foundto be relatedwithpregnancy. Therelapsesduringpregnancyareknowntohave a mildcourse but on thecontrary, therelapsesduringthepostpartumperiodtendto be particularly severe. It is suggestedto stop takingdiseasemodifyingtherapies (DMT) at leastonemonthpriortothepregnancyplanningperiod. There is nocontraindicationfortheuseof conventionalcontraceptives; however it is knownthat oral contraceptivesincreasethe risk of venousthromboembolism in MS patientswithimpairedmobility. Patientswithdecreasedfertilityandwhoarecandidatesforassistedreproductiontechnologies (ART) should be informedabouttheincreased risk of relapse. It is alsoshownthatproceduresunderspinalanesthesiaincreasethe risk of relapse, so general anesthesiamay be an alternative in MS patients. Cautioustitration of anestheticdrugs, continuousmonitoringandusingthelowestpossibleeffectivedosearethetreatmentprinciples. Exceptforhepatitis B therearenoadequatepublished data aboutvaccinesthatcause CNS demyelination. Inthispaper, wediscuss how toapproachtheabovementionedparticularissues in MS patients
