<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>During embryonic and neonatal development, mitochondria have essential effects on metabolic and energetic regulation, shaping cell fate decisions and leading to significant short- and long-term effects on embryonic and offspring health. Therefore, perturbation on mitochondrial function can have a pathological effect on pregnancy. Several shreds of evidence collected in preclinical models revealed that severe mitochondrial dysfunction is incompatible with life or leads to critical developmental defects, highlighting the importance of correct mitochondrial function during embryo-fetal development. The mechanism impairing the correct development is unknown and may include a dysfunctional metabolic switch in differentiating cells due to decreased ATP production or altered apoptotic signalling. Given the central role of mitochondria in embryonic and fetal development, the mitochondrial dysfunction typical of Mitochondrial Diseases (MDs) should, in principle, be detectable during pregnancy. However, little is known about the clinical manifestations of MDs in embryonic and fetal development. In this manuscript, we review preclinical and clinical evidence suggesting that MDs may affect fetal development and highlight the fetal and maternal outcomes that may provide a wake-up call for targeted genetic diagnosis.</jats:p>
