Oedemas during pregnancy make differential diagnosis imperative, since it will be necessary to determine whether they occur primarily in connection with pregnancy or are secondary to a pre-existent renal disease. In the studies presented here were examined women without known pre-existing renal disease, to determine the influence exercised on the parameters of renal function by the oedemas occurring during pregnancy. Examination was effected weekly by means of the previously described programme for risk pregnancies during the individual stages of pregnancy. No statistically significant influence on ureterorenal function was seen in these women compared with groups of controls. The results are discussed on the basis of facts available from literature.
