    Abstract:
    A 23 year-old primigravid woman presented eclampsia and HELLP syndrome (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets) with severe left ventricular dysfunction after having a cesarean section. In a few weeks, clinic disappeared and ventricular function normalized. The importance of differential diagnosis between ventricular dysfunction in eclampsia and peripartum myocardiopathy is discussed.
