Abstract

Eisenmenger syndrome is defined as the development of pulmonary hypertension in response to a left-to-right cardiac shunt with consequent bidirectional or reversal (right-to-left) of shunt flow. Maternal mortality in the presence of Eisenmenger syndrome is reported to be 30-50%. If the patient continues her pregnancy against advice, a well-coordinated multidisciplinary team approach is advocated. Here, we report a case of pregnancy with Eisenmenger syndrome and its successful outcome.
