Abstract
Recent studies have suggested an association between
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) and thyroid
disease. This combination is however rare during
pregnancy. Here is a case of uncontrolled
hyperthyroidism with severe PAH presenting during
the third trimester. Due to impeding fetal distress
patient was taken for delivery via caesarean section.
Under a cover of Propylthiouracil (PTU) and beta
blockers, epidural anaesthesia was given to avoid
substantial hemodynamic variations which may
induce sudden right ventricular insufficiency.
Uneventful intraoperative and postoperative course
ensured good maternal outcome.
