Doctors from two hospitals performed a cesarean section on a pregnant woman with severe heart disease.

The Central Obstetrics Hospital informed that doctors here have just coordinated with Hanoi Heart Hospital to successfully perform a cesarean section on a pregnant woman with severe cardiovascular disease.

Being treated at Hanoi Heart Hospital, Ms. BML in Hanoi, who had a very serious congenital heart disease, was 32 weeks pregnant, her life was in danger.

Given the patient's critical condition, Hanoi Heart Hospital requested assistance from the National Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital to coordinate emergency surgery for the pregnant woman.

Doctors from the Central Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital and Hanoi Heart Hospital helped a pregnant woman with severe heart disease have a successful cesarean section.

Immediately after receiving the request from Hanoi Heart Hospital, a team of good doctors, with high professional qualifications and a lot of experience immediately consulted with cardiologists. After many consultations and continuous monitoring of the patient, the experts and doctors agreed on the method of cesarean section for the patient, and at the same time prepared plans to receive resuscitation, treatment and care for the newborn.

After nearly an hour, the surgery was successful, the baby born weighing 1,200g was transferred to the Neonatal Care and Treatment Center, Central Obstetrics Hospital for monitoring and care. Ms. BML is in the Resuscitation Department, Hanoi Heart Hospital to continue treatment for heart diseases and consult with the Central Obstetrics Hospital to continue obstetric monitoring after surgery.

A mother with a serious heart condition had a safe delivery after surgery.

After the surgery, Dr. Dang Quang Hung shared: "Being pregnant up to this point is a miracle for the mother. The mother and child overcoming the surgery is beyond the imagination of the doctors. The advancement of science and the harmonious coordination of the two specialties of obstetrics and cardiology help people with severe cardiovascular disease to touch the dream of having a child that they have carried and given birth to. However, I advise patients who are unfortunate enough to have cardiovascular disease to consult with cardiologists and obstetricians before planning to get pregnant."
