In a pregnant woman presenting with thrombocytopenia, the possibility of HELLP syndrome should always be considered by the treating clinician so as to initiate the therapy at the earliest to prevent the high perinatal mortality and postpartum morbidity. Here we report an unusual case of young Primigravida (postpartum) who presented at Indraprastha Apollo hospitals, New Delhi with altered sensorium, paraperesis, DIC and septic shock. On evaluation she was found to have HELLP syndrome for which Plasmapheresis was given and patient showed remarkable improvement. |
