  • Congential heart disease is now the most common form of heart disease complicating pregnancy in the United States.
  • Rheumatic heart disease still predominates in developing countries and in immigrant populations in the United States.
  • Maternal death during pregnancy in women with heart disease is rare; conditions that are associated with increased mortality include Eisenmenger syndrome, pulmonary vascular obstructive disease, and Marfan syndrome with aortopathy.
