Abstract

Background. Among the somatic causes of maternal death, acute heart failure poses a particular threat. Its development in pregnant women in the absence of other causes is associated with peripartum cardiomyopathy characterized by high death rates. Case description. The paper describes a case of a 32-year-old woman with peripartum cardiomyopathy with an onset of pulmonary edema in the early postpartum period. The predisposing factors were anemia, as well as acute respiratory disease in pregnancy. The timely diagnosis and adequate therapy could achieve a favorable outcome. Conclusion. The lack of clarity in the understanding of the etiology of peripartum cardiomyopathy and clear therapeutic approach in this condition predetermines the need to continue to collect clinical cases in order to elaborate an optimal therapeutic and diagnostic algorithm for this disease.
