Abstract: The use of assisted reproduction techniques such as in vitro fertilization has been increasing in recent decades, with up to 8 million newborns conceived this way since 1978, when the first person conceived by this methods was born. Assisted reproduction has been associated with an increase in the incidence of multiple obstetric and perinatal complications such as preeclampsia. This article presents a narrative review of the association between in vitro fertilization and preeclampsia, with the most commonly associated maternal factors and procedure, along with measures that have been proposed to reduce this risk.
