[Liver transplantation for subcapsular haematoma during HELLP Syndrome].

Abstract

The hepatic rupture of a subcapsular haematoma during HELLP syndrome is a rare complication carrying a high mortality. There is no clear guideline management in the literature. We report here a case of a subcapsular haematoma which required liver transplantation.
