We report the peripartum management of a 29-year-old primigravid patient with neurocardiogenic syncope, which had been diagnosed six years previously on tilt-table testing.

She had an uneventful ventouse-assisted vaginal delivery under epidural anaesthesia in our obstetric high dependency unit. The optimum management of these patients has yet to be established.
