RESUMEN
El trastorno hipertensivo del embarazo es una de las complicaciones
más frecuentes de éste y una de las expresiones más serias de esta
enfermedad es el síndrome HELLP. Éste se distingue por el trastorno
hipertensivo más las triada: hemólisis microangiopática, elevación de
enzimas hepáticas y disminución del conteo de plaquetas. Las pacientes
con síndrome HELLP tienen mayor riesgo de complicaciones maternas,
como: hemorragia cerebral, desprendimiento de retina, hematomarotura
hepática, insuficiencia renal aguda, coagulación intravascular
diseminada, desprendimiento de placenta y, en algunas ocasiones,
muerte materna. Se recomienda la identificación de hallazgos de síndrome
HELLP en pacientes con trastorno hipertensivo del embarazo.
La principal confusión clínica del síndrome HELLP es el hígado graso
agudo del embarazo; sin embargo, existen parámetros que ayudan a su
correcta identificación. El síndrome HELLP implica la interrupción del
embarazo a corto plazo; la administración de corticoides no produce
efectos favorables en la morbilidad y mortalidad materna, pero puede
elevar la concentración de plaquetas, disminuir la necesidad de transfusión
y acortar la estancia hospitalaria. Gran parte de la disminución
de la morbilidad y mortalidad materna asociada con los trastornos
hipertensivos del embarazo consiste en establecer el diagnóstico adecuado
y el correcto tratamiento del síndrome HELLP.
