SAFE MOTHERHOOD IN A THIRD GRAVIDA WITH EBSTEIN’S ANOMALY AND SEVERE PRE-ECLAMPSIA
Abstract
Ebstein’s anomaly is a rare congenital cardiac abnormality that may be associated with dyspnoea and cardiac arrhythmias. Some of the patients reach reproductive age but the newborn may have prematurity and low birth weight. We are reporting a case of 30 year old lady with Ebstein’s Anomaly, who had 3 pregnancies successfully and delivered normal healthy babies at full term. In two of the pregnancies there was hypertension in the third trimester, which could be corrected with medicines.
