Abstract		Rubella virus is the most important teratogenic virus of man. There is a high risk to develop congenital rubella syndrome if rubella is contracted in the first trimester of pregnancy. Effective preventive meassures are available by vaccination with attenuated live vaccine which provides complete protection. High vaccination coverage in Slovenia effectively stopped the circulation of rubella virus in the population. In the last years there was no reported case of congenital rubella syndrome in Slovenia what we held as a success of vaccination and public health meassures. Particular care should be exercised when evaluating the pregnant woman from immigrant populations or in those with history of travelling to developing countries with no rubella vaccination coverage.
Summary		Virus rdečk je pri človeku najpomembnejši virus s teratogenim učinkom. Za plod je najnevarnejša okužba v prvem trimesečju nosečnosti. Učinkovita primarna preventiva je cepljenje z živim oslabljenim cepivom, ki zagotavlja učinkovito zaščito. Zaradi visoke precepljenosti v Sloveniji je velika večina prebivalstva imuna in virus v populaciji ne kroži. V Sloveniji v zadnjih letih nismo zabeležili laboratorijsko potrjenega primera kongenitalnega sindroma rdečk, kar štejemo kot velik uspeh javnozdravstvenih ukrepov in cepljenja. Na pojav rdečk in tudi preverjanje imunosti moramo biti zato pozorni predvsem v populaciji priseljencev in pri osebah, ki potujejo v nerazvite države, ki nimajo uvedenega cepljenja proti rdečkam.
