The patient was a 32-year-old para 2 who developed within a few hours after the first symptoms a lethal HELLP-syndrome. Despite initially normal blood pressure an hepatic failure, hemolysis and cerebral bleeding appeared. The autopsy revealed an eclamptic liver and symptoms of a disseminated intravasal coagulation (DIC). As a consequence a quick delivery instead of a conservative-expectant management because of fetal prematurity is recommended.
