[HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets) syndrome and acute pancreatitis complicated with severe preeclampsia].

A pregnant woman with severe preeclampsia developed HELLP syndrome and acute pancreatitis. She underwent an emergency caesarean section. In this patient, attention had to be paid to complicating cranial hemorrhage, rupture of liver subcapsular hematoma, acute renal failure, DIC, hypovolemic shock and sepsis. Therefore, we used a calcium blocker, diuretics and a protease inhibitor and examined the liver and pancreas by abdominal X ray-CT.
