Clinical case: a twenty-five year old black female patient, at the tenth week of pregnancy, who received two-year antiretroviral drug treatment for acquired immune deficiency syndrome. She began having sudden and low intensity dyspnea, which was increasing later, precordial pain, and palpitations. Consequently, she was admitted in the emergency room.
