Resumen
MARINHO, Márcia et al. A systematic approach of maternal thrombocytopenia during pregnancy. Acta Obstet Ginecol Port [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.1, pp.18-25. ISSN 1646-5830.
Thrombocytopenia is the second most common haematological disorder during pregnancy, affecting 5-12% of pregnancies. Defining the cause of thrombocytopenia in pregnant women must consider not only causes related to pregnancy, but also those that occur in general population. It imposes a particular approach, because of the possible consequences to both mother and neonate. The authors review the most common causes of thrombocytopenia in pregnant and postpartum women and how to manage this condition (from the clinical history, physical examination to complementary diagnostic exams). Treatment, prognosis and monitoring and their specificities in pregnancy are also discussed in this review.
