Over the years, the prognosis of their pregnancies has improved with advances in dialysis treatments and maternal and neonatal care. We conducted this systematic review to examine the recent data on maternal and foetal outcomes in pregnant women with end-stage renal failure on chronic dialysis over the last decade.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We made a systematic review of studies on pregnant women on chronic dialysis published between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2020. We searched the following electronic databases: Medline via PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library, with search strategies for each database. We checked the titles and abstracts identified by the search equation, and two independent reviewers assessed the articles retrieved. For each study, the two reviewers separately recorded the data from each selected article on a standardized data extraction form. For each article, we recorded relevant general information on the study, patient demographic characteristics, dialysis schedule, pregnancy complications and outcomes, maternal complications, and foetal and neonatal outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The literature search yielded 1668 potentially relevant abstracts. After reviewing the titles, abstracts and full text, we identified 14 studies according to the inclusion criteria. All studies were observational, nine of them were retrospective and eight were from a single-centre experience. The total number of women included in these studies was 2364 (range 8\u20132008) and the total number of pregnancies was 2754 (range 8\u20132352). The patients\u2019 ages ranged from 15 to 45 years. Obesity was observed in 808 (34.2%) women and ranged from 1 to 778. Haemodialysis was the predominant modality with 2551 (92.6%) pregnancies, and 203 (7.4%) on peritoneal dialysis. Overall, 68 out of 402 (16.9%) spontaneous miscarriages, 21 out of 402 (5.2%) therapeutic abortions and 26 (8.3%) stillbirths among 313 (stillbirths and live births) were recorded. The mean or median gestational age at delivery ranged from 25.2 to 36 weeks. The main maternal complications were preeclampsia 11.9%, hypertension 7.7% and anaemia 3.9%. Live births represented 287 (71.4%) out of 402 pregnancies, birth weight ranged from 590 to 3500\u00a0g and preterm birth was the main, most common complication in all studies, ranging from 50% to 100%. Intrauterine growth restriction was present in 5.9% and small-for-gestational-age was reported in 18.9% of neonates. There were 22 (7.6%) neonatal deaths among 287 live births and 48 (15.3%) perinatal deaths among 313 total births (stillbirths and live births).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Presumably, considering the increase in the number of publications and the total number of pregnancies reported therein, the frequency of pregnancy in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease treated by chronic dialysis has increased. However, the practice of treating pregnant women on dialysis differs significantly among countries. These findings highlight the need to standardize the definition of outcomes and healthcare for pregnant women on dialysis.<\/jats:p>\n
