Abstrakt: Three patients presenting in the postpartum period with veno-occlusive disease not related to the ingestion of pyrrolizidine alkaloids are described. The patients were treated by intravenous reinfusion of the ascitic fluid. This form of therapy has, to our knowledge, not previously been reported in the management of this condition.
