The HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets) syndrome is a severe and life-threatening complication of preeclampsia with typical laboratory findings. The frequency of the disease is 1 to 150-300 live births in perinatal centers. The course of the HELLP syndrome is unpredictable. On the one hand, complete reversal of symptoms under conservative treatment have been reported in individual cases, on the other hand, rapid, therapy-resistant deterioration of the disease had been observed in the majority of patients accompanied by severe complications as liver rupture. As a consequence; the mother and the newborn need intensive care and these women should be delivered in an obstetric intensive care unit. The maternal mortality reported from the international literature is 3.3% and the perinatal mortality 22.6%. This review will emphasize the controversies surrounding the diagnosis and management of HELLP syndrome.

HELLP (hemoliz, yükselmiş karaciğer enzimleri ve düşük trombosit) sendromu tipik laboratuar bulguları olan, şiddetli ve hayatı tehdit eden bir preeklampsi komplikasyonudur. Perinatal merkezlerde hastalığın sıklığı 150-300 canlı doğumda 1'dir. HELLP sendromunun seyri tahmin edilemez. Bir tarafta tedavi ile semptomların tam olarak geri döndüğü az sayıdaki vakalar bildirilirken, diğer tarafta hastaların çoğunda karaciğer rüptürü gibi şiddetli komplikasyonların eşlik ettiği, hızlı ve tedaviye dirençli bir kötüye gidiş gözlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak anne ve yenidoğanın yoğun bakıma ihtiyacı vardır ve bu kadınlar bir obstetrik yoğun bakım ünitesinde doğum yapmalıdır. Uluslararası literatürde maternal mortalite %3,3 ve perinatal mortalite %22,6 olarak bildirilmiştir. Bu derleme HELLP sendromunun tanı ve tedavisi ile ilgili tarışmaların üzerinde duracaktır.
