Gastrointestinal surgical problems often mimic symptoms and signs of nonsurgical conditions that occur during pregnancy. This mimicry presents a particular challenge to diagnosis because avoiding a delay in treatment is critical to successful management. Some of these conditions, such as acute appendicitis and biliary colic, are common in younger women; however, the anatomic and physiologic changes of pregnancy can alter their usual manner of presentation. Many elective and urgent operations can be performed during pregnancy with minimal risk to the mother and fetus. The mother's condition should always take priority because her proper treatment usually benefits the fetus as well.
