Spontaneous hepatic haemorrhage after caesarean section in a patient with uraemia and superimposed preeclampsia: a case report.
Journal of International Medical Research 2023 April
Perinatal spontaneous hepatic haemorrhage is a very rare disease affecting pregnant women, particularly those on long-term dialysis, that has a high maternal and infant mortality rate. Most patients experience preeclampsia with haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets syndrome. Here, the case of a 35-year-old multigravida patient with known chronic kidney disease and chronic hypertension with uraemia, who developed spontaneous hepatic haemorrhage after caesarean section, is described. The patient experienced sudden massive circulatory failure, but hemodynamics were temporarily stabilized after emergency surgery. Following transfer to the intensive care unit for continued treatment, her blood pressure and haemoglobin level continued to drop. Selective hepatic artery embolization was performed on day 2 after delivery, and her vital signs gradually stabilized. On day 30 after delivery, the patient was discharged in a stable condition. The newborn recovered after therapy in neonatal intensive care for 2 months. The present case suggests that, for perinatal spontaneous hepatic haemorrhage, timely and accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary management and determining the therapeutic approach according to clinical symptoms are essential.
