Wider selection of young patients for prosthetic valve replacement for valvular heart disease has resulted in an increase in number of women with heart disease reaching childbearing age. Such patients presenting in labor for emergency cesarean section require special consideration. We present a report of a parturient who presented at 36 weeks of gestation with severe aortic and mitral stenosis, pulmonary edema and severe preeclampsia. The goals of our anesthetic management included (1) careful airway management (2) maintaining stable hemodynamics (3) optimizing fluid status, and (4) preventing seizures. Issues related to management of patients with severe valvular disease, prosthetic valves and complications due to anticoagulant therapy during pregnancy are discussed.
