TORRES RODRIGUEZ, Karen Julieth. What is in Common Between Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy and Preeclampsia? Highly Mortal Clinical Sub-Diagnosis. Rev. Med [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.1, pp.61-72.  Epub 26-Nov-2022. ISSN 0121-5256.  https://doi.org/10.18359/rmed.2945.

Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is one of the liver disorders with the highest mortality rate (about 18%) during pregnancy, although it is rare: 1 in 7,000 to 16,000 pregnancies has many complications and requires immediate treatment to avoid the death of the pregnant woman or the fetus. However, this pathology can be masked by preeclampsia, which is another more frequent liver disease. This delays treatment and increases the number of complications. The aim of this article is to conduct a bibliographic search about AFLP and identify similar factors between this pathology and severe preeclampsia to make a diagnosis and provide treatment in a timely manner. For this, a systematic search was carried out in databases (PubMed, Science Direct, Medline, Embase) in June 2017. In addition, original articles, case reports, and review articles published in the last ten years were selected.

Palabras clave : Pregnancy; fatty liver; preeclampsia; third trimester of pregnancy.
