Severe jaundice in early IVF pregnancy.
Jaundice in early pregnancy after in vitro fertilization (IVF) is extremely rare. We report a case of severe jaundice in an IVF treated patient, with a clinical picture similar to intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). We suggest strategies to prevent similar cases in the future.
