[Subcapsular hepatic hematoma in severe postpartum pre-eclampsia. Presentation of a case].
Ginecol Obstet Mex. 1989 Dec; 57:325-8.GO

Abstract

One of the known complications of the patient with preeclamptic or eclamptic disease is the subcapsular hepatic hematoma, caused mainly by the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation. When such hematoma ruptures to the abdominal cavity mortality is high. Nevertheless, there are reports of survival, depending on a prompt and accurate diagnosis and a prompt surgical approach. In this article, a case of a patient with a postpartum severe pre-eclampsia is presented. She was diagnosed as a HELLP syndrome complicated by a disseminated intravascular coagulation and a subcapsular hepatic hematoma by clinic and supported by lab and confirmed by ultrasound, who had a satisfactory outcome.
