Abstract

Background/aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of plasma exchange therapy in patients with various forms of hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome. Methods: During a three-year period, 13 patients with HELLP syndrome were treated with one or two sessions of plasma exchange after delivery. Diagnosis of hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets syndrome was made according to Sibai’s criteria, and the severity of illness was categorized according to platelet counts. Among patients, nine were in class-1 and the remaining four were in class-2. Patients with very high levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (>2000 U/L) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (>3000 U/L) were defined as fulminant type (2 cases). Results: Rapid improvement in platelet counts was observed after treatment with plasma exchange. All patients survived except the two fulminant hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets syndrome cases. Conslusion: In our study, plasma exchange therapy was effective in patients with severe hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low plateletssyndrome, but fulminant cases did not appear to respond to this therapy.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı değişik formdaki hemoliz, artmış karaciğer enzimi, düşük trombosit sayısı sendromlu hastalarda plazma değiştirme tedavisinin etkinliğini araştırmaktır. Yöntem: 3 yıllk periyodda, 13 hemoliz, artmış karaciğer enzimi, düşük trombosit sayısı sendromlu hasta, doğumlarını takiben tek yada iki seans plazma değiştirmeyle tedavi edildi. hemoliz, artmış karaciğer enzimi, düşük trombosit sayısı sendromu tanısı Sibai'nin kriterlerine göre yapıldı ve hastalığın şiddeti trombosit sayısına göre sınıflandırıldı. Hastaların, dokuzu klas-1 ve kalan dördü klas-2 idi.Yüksek ALT (>2000 IU/L) ve LDH (>3000 IU/L) değerlerine sahip iki hasta, fulminant tip olarak tanımlandı. Bulgular: Plazma değiştirme tedavisinden sonra trombosit sayısı hızla düzeldi. Fulminant hemoliz, artmı ş karaciğer enzimi, düşük trombosit sayısı sendromlu 2 hasta haricinde tüm hastalar sağ kaldı. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, şiddetli hemoliz, artmış karaciğer enzimi, düşük trombosit sayı sı sendromunda plazma değiştirme tedavisi etkili bulundu, fakat fulminant vakalar bu tedaviye cevap vermedi.
