2013 
S 21 ANNUAL CONFERENCE—2013 M isella n eo u s patients. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (IHCP) was diagnosed by raised serum bile acid (>10mmol/L). Preeclampsia and Acute fatty liver of pregnancy were diagnosed by standard criteria. Results: Seventy eight patients were studies (median age 27 year range 20-42years). Eighty three percent (65/78) were in the third trimester of pregnancy. Spectrum of liver diseases was as follows IHCP was 58.9% (46/78), viral hepatitis 21.7% (17/78), preeclampsia 10.2% (8/78), hyperemesis 2.5%(2/78), AFLP 2.5%(2/78), Chronic Liver disease 2.5%(2/78). Among 17 patients with viral hepatitis, 11 had incidental HBsAg positivity, 5 with hepatitis E and 2 with hepatitis A presented as acute hepatitis. Maternal mortality was seen in 4 cases (2 AFLP, 2 preeclampsia) in the third trimester. Preterm delivery was observed in 8 patients, out of which 6 had IHCP (17.3%). Low birth weight was seen in 22 patients of whom 18 had IHCP (39.1%). There were 6 fetal deaths (2-AFLP, 2-preclampsia, 1-acute liver failure (hepatitis E related) and 1-CLD). The overall maternal and fetal death was 5.22 % and 7.69% respectively and was seen in AFLP, preeclampsia and ALF patients. Conclusions: IHCP is the commonest cause of deranged LFT during pregnancy. Preterm labor is common in IHCP. AFLP and preeclampsia were associated with poor maternal and fetal outcome. Corresponding author: Mohan B Goyal.
