Case Report (n=8)
This case-based review emphasizes the critical importance of multi-modality imaging and multidisciplinary care in managing acute cardiovascular emergencies during pregnancy and the peripartum period.
This manuscript explores the clinical presentation and physical examination findings in pregnant patients with presumed heart disease. There is a review of the clinical presentation, physical examination, and multi-modality imaging that led to a diagnosis in pregnant patients with coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, valvular heart disease, and pulmonary hypertension. The cases are not exhaustive, but represent a subset of the large number of cardiovascular conditions affecting pregnant patients. For an excellent and exhaustive review, the readership is directed to the 2018 ESC Guidelines for the management of cardiovascular disease during pregnancy.
