Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, elevated liver enzymes and low platelet count, also known as
HELLP syndrome, is a rare complication of pregnancy with high maternal and fetal mortality. One
of the most serious complications is a subcapsular liver hematoma. The diagnostic techniques used
for diagnosis are ultrasound, CT and MRI. Hemodynamically stable patients should be treated
conservatively and in cases of active bleeding with percutaneous embolization of the hepatic
arteries. We present a case of a 35-year-old woman with subcapsular liver hematoma with active
arterial bleeding who underwent an emergency cesarean section and was treated conservatively
with artery embolization with gelatin sponge.
