This clinical case report represents our experience of treatment of 36 y. o. pregnant female patient who was previously undergone mitral valve replacement as she was 25. The operation was performed with the use of two leaflet mechanical prosthesis ‘MedEng No. 21’ (Russia). The patient was admitted to our hospital at 29th week of gestation with the signs of heart failure and pulmonary congestion because of prosthetic valve dysfunction. Delivery was performed by Caesarean section followed by mitral valve reprosthetics. In order to stop obstetric bleeding before heparin injection internal iliac arteries was ligated. Total time of extracorporeal circulation was 89 minutes, and myocardial ischemia — 64 minutes. Normothermic perfusion was performed. Mother and newborn were discharged from the hospital in a normal stable state. The childbearing ability of the mother was preserved.
