Abstract
This article presents the case of a 40-year-old pregnant woman with mitral stenosis. Valvular heart disease can lead to a deterioration of cardiovascular function during pregnancy. Management during pregnancy should relieve symptoms and avoid maternal complications. Percutaneous mitral commissurotomy can be performed succesfully during pregnancy in experienced centres.
