Abstract

The World Health Organization declared the monkeypox outbreak a public health emergency of international concern in July 2022[1]. Most studies on poxvirus infection in humans do not include pregnant women and the data on the impact of monkeypox infection in pregnancy on maternal and perinatal outcomes are scarce. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies complicated by poxviruses infection, including smallpox (variola virus), monkeypox and molluscum contagiosum.
