HELLP syndrome is a form of severe pre-eclampsia with multisystem involvement. Laboratory markers include haemolysis (H), elevated liver enzymes (EL), and low platelets (LP). We present a patient to our institution with HELLP syndrome complicated by liver necrosis. The patient underwent urgent Caesarian section prior to transfer.
