Abstract (EN): <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Wolf-Rayet HII galaxies are local metal-poor star-forming galaxies, observed when the most massive stars are evolving from O stars to WR stars, making them template systems to study distant starbursts. We have been performing a program to investigate the interplay between massive stars and gas in WR HII galaxies using IFS. Here, we highlight some results from the first 3D spectroscopic study of Mrk 178,<jats:italic>the closest metal-poor WR HII galaxy</jats:italic>, focusing on the origin of the nebular HeII emission and the aperture effects on the detection of WR features.</jats:p>
