Ruptura hepática espontánea en paciente con síndrome HELLP

Hemorrhagic liver rupture is a rare and deadly complication. The pathogenesis is unknown. This situation forces the multidisciplinary team, the immediate termination of pregnancy, the treatment and management of the patient in an intensive care unit (ICU). We report the results of two patients with spontaneous rupture of the liver during pregnancy and HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count) syndrome, asymptomatic, during cesarean section, with management in ICU, poor evolution without adequate response; one died and the other leaves hospital. Liver rupture requires high suspicion and timely, aggressive multidisciplinary management in all cases and surgical intervention in those who develop liver ruptura, to improve survival.
