Fetal exposure to maternal ingestion of warfarin is known to produce certain dysmorphic features in the neonate, known as fetal warfarin syndrome (FWS). There is a general consensus that maternal intake of warfarin at a daily dose of 5 mg or less is safe both for the infant and the mother.
We report four cases of FWS born to mothers with rheumatic heart disease on warfarin prophylaxis during pregnancy at a dose less than 5 mg/day.
Along with typical facial features of FWS and multiple epiphyseal stippling in skeletal x-ray, Case 1 had Dandy-Walker malformation and Case 2 had laryngo-tracheomalacia and patent ductus arteriosus.
We emphasize the need for optimizing the choice and dosage schedule of anticoagulants during pregnancy, least harmful for the mother and her developing fetus.
已知胎儿在母体摄入华法林后会出现某些新生儿畸形特征,即胎儿华法林综合征(FWS)。普遍的共识是,母亲每日服用5毫克或更低剂量的华法林对婴儿和母亲都是安全的。
我们报告了4例患有风湿性心脏病的母亲在孕期服用低于5毫克/天剂量的华法林进行预防治疗后所生的FWS病例。
除了FWS典型的面部特征和骨骼X线检查显示的多发骨骺点状钙化外,病例1患有Dandy-Walker畸形,病例2患有喉气管软化症和动脉导管未闭。
我们强调在孕期需要优化抗凝剂的选择和用药方案,使其对母亲及其发育中的胎儿危害最小。
