摘要：
The occurence of brain death represents a catastrophic entity althoug infrequent. The aim to continue medical management are focused in a double purpose: to preserve intrauterine product's life and fetal maduration until delivery and to consider the mother as a potential organ donor. Ethical considerations together with gestational age, product well being and relatives' wishes are cardinal for continuing medical support. Modern critical care units allow to obtain favourable results, supported in scientifical reports that describe successful outcomes. Nutritional aspects plays a cardinal role in the medical management, allowing to preserve mother's organs viability and also to preserve product's intrauterine growth and development.
