https://doi.org/10.23934/2223-9022-2022-11-3-476-483
Abstract
This literature review is devoted to the problem of spontaneous liver ruptures in pregnant women. Its goal was to raise awareness among physicians as one of the methods to improve the early diagnosis of the disease, as well as to consider the role of the hepatological surgeon in the surgical treatment of rare obstetric diseases. The main links of the pathogenesis of liver ruptures were considered, the problem of high maternal and perinatal mortality was disclosed. Based on the literature data, the most optimal obstetric and surgical treatment and diagnostic tactics for managing pregnant women with spontaneous liver ruptures were determined.
