Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of maternal mortality. The management of pregnant women with mechanical valve prosthesis is difficult. Fetal-maternal mortality and morbidity are high. Selection of the most appropriate anticoagulant that will minimize fetal, maternal mortality and avoid embryopathy risk should be tailored according to the needs of each individual patient. 
 In this paper, in the light of the literature, we aimed to discuss our patient, who delivered at 39th gestational week after a pregnancy before which she had not been provided with prepregnancy counseling and during which she did not attend follow-up visits.
 These patients prepregnancy counseling, follow-up visits, anticoagulant management during pregnancy, and prophylaxis and management of complications at the postpartum period are very important and require close follow-up.
