Meloni A et al. - The authors describe the main issues encountered in pregnancy care in two perinatally infected adolescents with HIV. These two cases indicate the feasibility of an adequate pregnancy care in very young HIV-positive women, but suggest that potential difficulties may be encountered in this population in maintaining optimal care after delivery. Such objectives might be better obtained with a timely transition of adolescents with HIV from paediatric clinics to a multiservice care setting which includes infectious diseases clinics, obstetric and gynaecologic departments and, particularly, counselling and educational services.
