Pregnancy complicated with Eisenmenger syndrome is associated with high risk to the fetus as well as the mother. There is approximately 50% risk of sudden maternal death, frequently occuring a few days postpartum and the overall fetal wastage is reported to be up to 75%. Patients with Eisenmenger syndrome are advised to refrain from pregnancy or to terminate pregnancy by the end of rst trimester itself. Management of these patients requires a co- ordinated multi-specialist care when such pregnancies reach a stage where safe termination is not advisable. However, in spite of all the risks, a few patients deliver successfully with a good maternal and neonatal outcome. We present 2 cases reported till third trimester and delivered a healthy baby and were subsequently discharged on the 10th postpartum day without any serious complications.

A 19-year-old pregnant patient was diagnosed with primary toxoplasmosis infection. The patient was successfully treated with spiramycin and finally delivered normally a healthy boy. Serological tests for detection of anti-toxoplasma antibodies along with ultrasonography findings are the gold standard for the diagnosis. Spiramycin was used for embryo protection.

A 19-year-old female patient was presented to our clinic for a pregnancy follow-up during which primary toxoplasmosis infection was diagnosed. The patient was successfully treated with spiramycin and finally delivered normally a healthy boy, on term. Serological tests (ELISA) for detection of anti-toxoplasma antibodies along with ultrasonography findings on the fetus are the gold standard for the diagnosis. Spiramycin was used for embryo protection to avoid T.gondii transmission to the fetus across the placenta.
