Pregnancy in carrier women of prosthesis mechanical heart is a high-rish pregnancy. Indeed, the risk of accidents thromoemboliques even on well led anticoagulation therapy remains high due to the presence of the state of hypercoagulability, mechanical prosthesis and the peri-partum hemorrhage. Multidisciplinary follow-up is essentizal.The prescription of anticoagulant therapy must comply with the principles and consensual indications in order to minimize maternal and fetal complications.
