A complicated case of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in pregnancy with superimposed preeclampsia.
English abstract
A 32-year-old woman at 26 weeks gestation presented with severe unexplained
thrombocytopenia with signs and symptoms of severe pregnancy-induced hypertension
and what appeared to be hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count
syndrome, leading to a severe diagnostic challenge. The multidisciplinary team identified
her condition as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Timely management decisions
and multidisciplinary care ensured a safe delivery.
