  • Title: [Infectious-toxic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation in a pregnant woman with influenza].
    Author: Anisimova IuN, Trushnikova GV.
    Journal: Arkh Patol; 1994; 56(3):79-82. PubMed ID: 8092950.
    Abstract:
    A pregnant female died of generalized influenza resulting in infectious-toxic shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). DIC syndrome development was probably facilitated by placental detachment and increased blood coagulation potential characteristic for pregnancy. Multiple thrombosis of microcirculation vessels of the kidneys, pituitary, myocardium and other organs prevailed over hemorrhages typical for toxic influenza without pregnancy. Hypoxic damage was most pronounced in the kidneys (advanced necrosis of the tubules, focal cortical necrosis).
