Neonatal and maternal risk in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome: peripartum management-brief report and review of literature.
Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2014 June
INTRODUCTION: Challenges of modern medicine are peripartum bleeding complications as one of the most frequent cases of emergency in obstetrics with a prevalence of 0.5-5.0 %, meaning the main cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. In this context, inherited diseases such as Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) should be recognized. HPS is a rare disease and belongs to a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by the triad of partial oculocutaneous albinism, disorder of "ceroid" metabolism and platelet storage pool deficiency with bleeding disorder.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We report on a 30-year-old primipara, to show the peripartum obstetrical and anaesthesiological management. The patient presented with contractions in our outpatient department in the 39th gestational week. In previous operations there were bleeding complications due to HPS.
DISCUSSION: Therefore, to minimize bleeding complications we aimed a vaginal birth, advised against the peridural anesthesia and optimized the coagulation parameters. The subsequent delivery was performed as vacuum extraction without complications. Patient and newborn could be discharged from the hospital without complications.
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, decisive factor for patients with bleeding disorders is a close interdisciplinary cooperation between obstetrician and anesthesiologist.
