Objective. To determine the prevalence of HELLP syndrome in relation to several clinical factors in the State of Hidalgo.
Material and methods. This is a study of cases. The population of study, is composed of women who during their pregnancy have suffered HELLP syndrome after having suffered preeclampsia in a Hospital of Pachuca.
Results. Within the complications, all patients had hyperreflexia and thrombocytopenia. 3 of them suffered headache. There was no previous preeclampsia, no nausea, jaundice, hematuria, or eclampsia. Half of the patients with HELLP presented not very high arterial hypertension, even asymptomatic, and 2 of them showed edema. There was epigastralgia, cholecystitis and liver failure in only one patient of 4. Out of a total of 8436 outpatients in the Pachuca Obstetrical Hospital, 4 patients had HELLP syndrome, with an incidence of 0.04%. Of the total of 4 patients 2 presented severe preeclampsia.
Conclusion. So far, no cases have been reported in the cases treated with this syndrome in the institution where the study was carried out.
