title: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome complicating pregnancy: a case report with review of literature.
abstract: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) affects women of child-bearing age. There are little reported data on the outcomes of pregnancy in women with POTS. The most common mode of delivery reported in the literature is the caesarean section. Here we describe a woman with POTS who delivered vaginally without any complications and present a comprehensive review of the literature on pregnancy in POTS.
