Introduction: liver diseases occupied the fourth leading cause of incidence in clinical conditions in pregnancy between 15 and 42 weeks, or preterm infants provided intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) and low Apgar. Objective: to describe the perinatal result of the pregnant patients with liver diseases. Methods: a retrospective, descriptive, cross study was conducted at Maternity Hospital in 10 de Octubre Municipality from January 2007 and June 2011. The sample comprised 16 pregnant women with diagnosis of liver disease. The variables considered were age, gestational age at admission and age at delivery, delivery procedure, weight of neonates according their gestational age, neonatal Apgar scores, type of liver disease, causes of caesarean. Results: 68.8 % were admitted to perinatal care between 37 and 42 weeks and 75 % had intrahepatic cholestasis. At birth, 62.5% were between 37 and 42 weeks of gestation. Caesarean section was the most common delivery procedure. 37.5 % of the infants weighed between 3-10 percentiles with Apgar scores between 6 and 9. 50% had no complications. Conclusions: the most frequent liver diseases are those characteristic of the pregnancy and intrahepatic cholestasis is one of among them. It was frequently diagnosed at 34-36 weeks. The Caesarean operation is the elected childbirth procedure at 37 to 42 weeks, generally for bad obstetric conditions. Neonates are born ranking 3-10 percentile and Apgar scores from 6 and 9.
