Measles is an acute exanthema spread by airborne infection and still occurs sporadically in Japan. Its mortality rate is estimated to be 0.1% and it has no specific therapy. Here, we present two cases of measles in pregnant women immediately preceding delivery. It is required to prevent the perinatal spread of measles when pregnant women are infected immediately preceding delivery. We measured the measles antibody titer of 1,393 pregnant women by enzyme immunoassay between 2004 and 2008. The antibody-positive rate was 87.7%, but the antibody titer tended to be low in childbearing age. Preventive treatment with measles vaccination is extremely important before pregnancy in order to prevent perinatal measles.
麻疹是一种通过空气传播感染的急性发疹性疾病,在日本仍有散发病例。其死亡率估计为0.1%,且无特效治疗方法。在此,我们报告两例临产前孕妇患麻疹的病例。当孕妇在临产前感染麻疹时,必须预防围产期麻疹传播。我们在2004年至2008年期间采用酶免疫测定法检测了1393名孕妇的麻疹抗体滴度。抗体阳性率为87.7%,但育龄期抗体滴度往往较低。为预防围产期麻疹,在孕前进行麻疹疫苗预防性治疗极为重要。
