A pregnant patient with multiple peripheral pulmonic stenosis and pulmonary hypertension was monitored.
The patient's obstetric course was uneventful.

Findings:

The patient experienced a benign obstetric course.
Congenital heart disease, including peripheral pulmonic stenosis, can be managed safely during pregnancy.

Implications:

This case suggests that pregnancy may be safely managed in patients with peripheral pulmonic stenosis and pulmonary hypertension.
