We present our experience with the treatment and the course of pregnancy and delivery of a woman suffering from fully developed autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2 (which represents diabetes mellitus type one, autoimmune Hashimoto tyreoiditis and Addison disease).

It was a planned pregnancy of well metabolic controlled patient. The course of the pregnancy was normal till gestational age 32.

Preeclampsia was the reason for admitting the patient to the hospital as well as the cause for sectio cesarea at gestational age 37. New born child with mild symptoms diabetic fetopathy was treated three days on New-borns Intensive Care Unit.
