Such an unusual case. Kudos to the mother who kept the baby and took the risk of a major cardiac surgery. 1996, London, we lost a 30-year-old mother 3 days after childbirth due to Eiseenmenger; she was adamant about proceeding with the pregnancy despite knowing the risks. I

How could I not repost this gem? I am seeing a 25-year-old today who just had a healthy baby. I am sure she will have questions for me. #cardiotwitter #MedTwitter #echofirst
