Role of MicroRNAs in Cardiac Disease with Stroke in Pregnancy

Figure 5

(a) In a woman, in 18 weeks of her 2nd pregnancy, the magnetic resonance appears bicuspid aortic valve (arrow) showing moderately enlarged ascending aorta up to 4.75 cm [28]. (b) Posteroanterior chest radiographs in a 22-year-old woman during and post pregnancy. At 36 weeks, the first radiograph was taken which showed an enlarged cardiac silhouette and engorged pulmonary vasculature (arrows) with apical redistribution [29]. (c) This is a case of a 24-week pregnant woman at her 30-year-old along subarachnoid hemorrhage due to eclampsia complication. Axial FLAIR MR image shows the presence of subarachnoid blood in the right posterior frontal and parietal sulci (short arrows) and subtle edema covering the underlying cortex (long arrows) [30]. (d) Peripartum cardiomyopathy showed in a pregnant woman by chest radiography [31].
