Relevance. Today, despite the development of medical technologies and the improvement of the logistical aspects of healthcare, the problem of unified treatment, diagnostic and routing algorithms for pregnant women and women in labor with urgent surgical pathology remains unresolved. The first step towards its solution is a detailed analysis of the current structure of incidence and routing paths.The objective was to analyze the incidence of urgent extragenital surgical pathology and routing paths in pregnant women and women in labor in St. Petersburg.Methods and materials. Based on the database of invoices issued by insurance organizations in St. Petersburg for completed cases of treatment, we performed a retrospective analysis of the data of pregnant patients with extragenital surgical pathology, hospitalized on an emergency basis in the period from 2019 to 2021.

The total proportion of surgical interventions in patients with extragenital pathology is 35.1 %.
