• Female, 32 y-o• Β-thalassemia in regular

transfusion regimen (2009)• Incostant ICT• HCV positive• Splenectomy (2006)

• 05.2013: IVF STOP ICT

• RBC transfusion (each 2w)

• Last cardiac T2*: 32 ms (2009)

• ECG & echo normals at 21w

At 33 week:• Foetal growth restriction Caesar section• Transitory SBP < 90 mmHg & Clinical signs of AHF

(HR: 130/min; T3; Peripheral oedema; BNP: 3790 pg/ml)

• LVEF ≈ 25%

CCU & AHF treatment

Conclusions & Learning Points• More than 500 pregnancies reported in BT pts• Rate of pregnancy of 27.3% (TCRN, 2013)

• B-TI prob. of pregnancy vs prob. in HCV +• B-TI High rate of TE events: 3.3-29%• Cardiac complications: 1.1-15.6%• Peripartum LV dysfunction only 1.5%

Close follow-up of these patients!!!Especially during pregnancy
