Abstract
OBJECTIVE Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a rare, autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder which can aggressively affect the aortic vasculature. Limited information is available regarding its impact on pregnancy and postpartum outcomes. CASE REPORT A pregnant 38-year-old nulliparous woman with mild aortic regurgitation and family history of aortic aneurysms presented with an aortic root measuring 49 mm. Despite concerns of an underlying connective tissue disorder, a definitive diagnosis was not reached. She delivered under strict blood pressure control, developed intractable uterine atony, and underwent uterine artery embolization. On the second postpartum day, aortic dissection was incidentally diagnosed, and aortic root replacement surgery was performed. Genetic testing revealed a novel in-frame SMAD3 deletion [NM_005902.4: c.703_708del, (p.Ile235_Ser236del)], leading to a diagnosis of LDS type 3. CONCLUSION This case highlights the high postpartum aortic dissection risk in women with LDS, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis in pregnant women with few clinical symptoms.

Abstract
Advances in both imaging techniques and genetics have led to the recognition of a wide variety of aortic anomalies that can be grouped under the term 'hereditary thoracic aortic diseases'. The present review aims to summarize this very heterogeneous population's clinical, genetic, and imaging characteristics and to discuss the implications of the diagnosis for clinical counselling (on sports activity or pregnancy), medical therapies and surgical management.

Abstract
With improvements in early diagnosis and management of genetic diseases, more women with genetic disorders are reaching reproductive age and becoming pregnant. While pregnancy can have a significant impact on a woman's health when there is an underlying genetic disorder, there can also be fetal effects, including embryopathy, fetal growth restriction, and brain injury. Some maternal genetic disorders are associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, including a high risk of perinatal loss and preterm birth. In this article, we review several maternal genetic disorders associated with fetal risk that are important for clinicians and patients to understand and manage appropriately. These include phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency and other inborn errors of metabolism, tuberous sclerosis complex, myotonic dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, Turner syndrome, sickle cell disease, and connective tissue disorders.
