RUIZ, Nelson L. Moreno. Pregnancy and anticoagulation in mechanical valves: A therapeutic challenge. Rev. Colomb. Cardiol. [online]. 2018, vol.25, n.5, pp.327-332. ISSN 0120-5633.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rccar.2017.11.031.

Pregnancy and mechanical valves are a therapeutic challenge both for the gynaecologist and the cardiologist in view of the maternal-foetal complications, and the higher risk of valvular thrombosis. Half a century after the first report of a full term pregnancy in this context, much has been learned, but there are still significant controversies, which are essential to know about, in order to find the most balanced treatment.
