Abstract

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an autosomal dominant arteriopathy, caused by mutations in a gene called Notch3 on long arm of chromosome 19. It is very rare in pregnancy. This case report is presented to create awareness regarding investigating patients presenting with such illness for a better perinatal outcome.
