Abstract
Cardiac disease in pregnancy remains a major cause of indirect maternal death. Specifically, Ebstein's anomaly is an uncommon congenital cardiac abnormality of the tricuspid valve that may be associated with cyanosis and arrhythmias. For female patients with this anomaly who survive to adult life, there is little information on pregnancy, maternal complications and fetal outcomes.We discuss the case of a pregnant woman with this anomaly to address this issue so that these patients can receive appropriate advice and the risks of pregnancy can be successfully managed.
