  • Title: [The HELLP syndrome as a severe complication of EPH gestosis].
    Author: Ulman J, Ulman-Doniec I.
    Journal: Wiad Lek; ; 42(16-18):952-5. PubMed ID: 2701042.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of a literature review the extremely severe form of EPH gestosis--the HELLP syndrome is described. In the clinical manifestations of the syndrome a symptom triad predominates: haemolytic anaemia, raised values of hepatic enzymes and thrombocytopenia. The only causative treatment saving the life of the mother and fetus is possibly early termination of pregnancy and adequate supplementation of blood deficiency. The pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, differential diagnosis and treatment of the HELLP syndrome are discussed.
