Abstract
HISTORY: A 28-years old patient delivers a daughter by primary caesarian section (41. WOP) in breech presentation after a complication-free pregnancy except increased blood pressure readings at the morning of caesarian section. During the caesarian section a major bleeding of the atonic uterus with hemorrhagic shock appears. Haemostasis is achieved by mechanical tamponade, the application of red blood cell concentrates and the substitution of clotting factors, also tranexamic acid. Because of an anuric renal failure due to the shock hemodialysis is initiated.
EXAMINATIONS/FINDINGS: Clinical examination and blood tests show the constellation of a thrombotic microangiopathy. There are no hints for a thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) or a hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). In addition, a genetic testing gives no hints for an atypical HUS. After 4 weeks of dialysis duty a renal biopsy is performed. The renal biopsy shows a partly reversible tubular damage with an older ischemic cortical necrosis.
DIAGNOSIS/THERAPY: In the further course the resumption of the diuresis can be observed. The dialysis treatment has to be continued because of an insufficient excretory renal function. Fortunately a living-donor kidney transplantation (mother) can be carry out successfully already one year after the hemorrhagic shock.
CONCLUSION: The combination of peripartal bleeding with hemorrhagic shock, possibly aggravated by (pre-)eclampsia or HELLP-syndrome, and the application of tranexamic acid with its prothrombotic effect seems to be responsible for the major renal cortical necrosis.
