The Use of Bromocriptine for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy after Twin Delivery via Oocyte Donation.
Internal Medicine 2019 Februrary 16
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is rare but life-threatening. We herein report the case of a 48-year-old woman with PPCM after oocyte donation and delivery of twins. Two weeks after delivery, she suffered from severe symptoms of heart failure [orthopnea, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV, pulmonary edema and a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction of 18%]. Although standard heart failure therapy was effective for diminishing the congestion, it was not sufficient to improve her symptoms or left ventricular systolic dysfunction. During admission, we added bromocriptine. A year later after the onset, she was in a good state with an improved left ventricular systolic function.
