Successful pregnancy outcomes are possible in female heart transplant recipients of reproductive age with careful and close surveillance by a multidisciplinary team. Monitoring and care are essential for ensuring a healthy pregnancy and delivery.
Objectives: The population of female heart transplant recipients of reproductive age is increasing and pregnancy follow-up of these patients is important. Case presentation: A 30-year-old patient who had a heart transplant due to viral myocarditis became pregnant spontaneously. A close follow-up by a multidisciplinary team allowed a normal pregnancy without maternal or fetal complications and the delivery of a healthy infant. Conclusions: Successful pregnancy outcomes are possible in women who had a heart transplant. Careful and close surveillance by a multidisciplinary team is mandatory.
