what is 'acute pregnancy-related fatty liver - acute liver failure in late pregnancy '?
Definition for acute pregnancy-related fatty liver
Acute fatty liver of pregnancy is a rare life-threatening complication of pregnancy that occurs in the third trimester or the immediate period after delivery.
more
Acute fatty liver of pregnancy is a rare life-threatening complication of pregnancy that occurs in the third trimester or the immediate period after delivery. It is thought to be caused by a disordered metabolism of fatty acids by mitochondria in the fetus, caused by deficiency in the LCHAD (long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase) enzyme. The condition was previously thought to be universally fatal , but aggressive treatment by stabilizing the mother with intravenous fluids and blood products in anticipation of early delivery, has improved prognosis.
