Pregnancy in women with repaired truncus arteriosus (TA) is rare. We report the outcomes of 8 pregnancies in 4 women with surgically repaired TA. None of the women had adverse cardiac events during pregnancy. Two pregnancies, both in the same woman, were complicated by hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The birth weight was less than the 10th percentile for gestational age in 3 pregnancies. Although women with repaired TA can do well during pregnancy, they require careful preconception assessment and surveillance.
