Abstract
Decisions concerning the outcome of the pregnancy are very variable from one couple to another and from one medical team to another. Parents making a request must be given complete information and accompanying psychological support. Collegial with a multidisciplinary team is necessary. For the parents, it is the physician's duty to avoid judgement errors related to anxiety and ignorance of the medical consequences. The physician should guide the parents towards the continuation of the pregnancy or its interruption. The proper decision proceeds from the reunion of the confidence of the couple and the conscience of the physician.
