Abstract
HELLP develops in approximately 0.1–0.8% of pregnancies overall and as many as 15–20% of patients with HELLP syndrome do not have antecedent hypertension or proteinuria. The risk factor for development of ascites is extensive structural damage of the microvasculature in patients complicated by HELLP. The aim of this study is to report a case with HELLP syndrome complicated with massive ascites after vaginal delivery that eventually resolved spontaneously.
