HELLP syndrome: a condition of varied presentation.

R Gleeson1, J Farrell, M Doyle, J J Walshe.   

Abstract

Three cases of HELLP syndrome are presented which illustrate its varied clinical presentation, the difficulty in making a diagnosis and the management problems. The cases varied in severity; all showed thrombocytopenia and abnormal liver function tests, but in one case the blood pressure remained within "normal limits" whereas another patient suffered grand mal seizures due to hypertensive encephalopathy.
