Pregnancy and congenitally corrected transposition of the great vessels
Keywords:
PREGNANCY, TRANSPOSITION OF GREAT VESSELS, HEART DISEASES
Abstract
Given current therapeutic progress made in the recent years, the cases of pregnant women with congenital heart disease have increased in terms of incidence. The study presents the clinical case of a patient who has a personal history of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and is pregnant with her first child. Her outcome is discussed, and based on this, the effects of heart disease in the pregnancy-puerperal cycle and viceversa are likewise discussed, the same as the importance of counseling and the multidisciplinary approach of these patients.
