Primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) is an uncommon disease with a poor prognosis. Most patients with PPH are young women of child-bearing age. We report on such a case of PPH during pregnancy, discuss the aetiology, pathophysiology, morphological characteristics and the management in pregnancy and delivery.
