[The HELLP syndrome--a rare form of preeclampsia. Anesthesiologic and obstetric aspects].
A 34-year-old quadripara was hospitalized in the 33rd gestational week due to an acute hypertensive crisis, headache, upper abdominal pain, icterus, and proteinuria. Laboratory testing revealed hemolysis, hepatic dysfunction, and thrombopenia. The values returned toward normal after delivery by cesarean section. Diffuse bleeding in the surgical wound and acute renal failure necessitated two relaparotomies, intensive hemotherapy, and hemodialysis. Mother and child were released in good condition. Anesthesiological and obstetrical aspects of the HELLP syndrome are discussed.
