AbstractPeripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare idiopathic cardiomyopathy having an incidence of less than 0.1%. PPCM is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates ranging from 5 to 32%. In this review, the authors report a series of five PPCM cases. The case reports included pregnant women with PPCM, admitted in the hospital from October 1, 2017 to June 1, 2018 over a period of 9 months who required cesarean section. The authors aim to discuss the presentation, optimization, anesthetic management, and postoperative care of this rare condition. One of the cases was a booked case. The remaining four pregnant patients were referred in late pregnancy with features of congestive cardiac failure. One patient was in acute pulmonary edema, required intubation, and subsequently had cesarean section under general anesthesia. Four patients were managed with incremental epidural anesthesia. The need for proper preoperative optimization and intra- and postoperative management was discussed. The authors had one maternal mortality in our series. There was no neonatal mortality. Early diagnosis of PPCM, prompt treatment of heart failure, planning the delivery, and postpartum care can decrease maternal morbidity and mortality. Incremental epidural dosing can be used for cesarean section and has the advantage of stable hemodynamic status without the risks associated with general anesthesia.
