Non-sirotik portal hipertansiyonda gebeliğin başarılı yönetimi: olgu sunumu

Abstract

Introduction:The co-existence of pregnancy and liver disease is considered to be a rare and complex clinical situation. Besides pregnancy has specific complications even in a healthy liver, the previous liver damage associated to portal hypertension develops additional risks as a result of marked hemodynamic disturbances. Case:We report the management of a pregnancy of a 22-year-old patient without additional complications beside NCPH and a history of prophylactic endoscopic ligation of esophageal varices. The pregnancy continued until term and cesarean section was performed successfully. Conclusion:In non-cirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH) the liver function is usually preserved, and the increased risk of bleeding from esophageal varices in pregnancy is open to debate.
