[HELLP syndrome].

Abstract

The Hellp syndrome is a rare complication of hypertension in pregnancy, characterized by haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and thrombocytopenia. Since the disease progresses very rapidly, it is important for successful treatment, to make an early diagnosis, evaluating the typical laboratory data changes, which are evident prior to clinical manifestations. Means of diagnosis and therapeutic approach are described, on the basis of personal experience.
