ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Remarcar la importancia de hacer un adecuado diagnóstico diferencial de la anemia y trombocitopenia en la gestante, ya que en ocasiones enmascaran cuadros tan graves como la leucemia. Presentar un caso de leucemia mieloide aguda con una preeclampsia sobreañadida y describir el proceso diagnóstico y terapéutico llevado a cabo. CASO CLÍNICO: Secundigesta, 25 años, gestante de 37 semanas, con antecedentes de preeclampsia, derivada desde atención primaria por alteración analítica y malestar general. A su llegada a urgencias el cuadro clínico es compatible con un Síndrome de HELLP. Tras el estudio del mismo se llega a la certeza de que se trata de una preeclampsia asociada a una leucemia mieloide aguda que ha simulado los parámetros analíticos de un Síndrome de HELLP. CONCLUSIONES: Es importante el adecuado estudio etiológico de la anemia y trombocitopenia en la gestación. La leucemia exige al clínico un abordaje precoz y multidisciplinar tanto diagnóstico como terapéutico.


OBJECTIVE: To emphasize on the importance of performing a precise differential diagnosis of anaemia and thrombocytopenia during pregnancy, as they can be due to important diseases as leukemia. A case of acute myeloid leukemia associated with preeclampsia is reported, describing the complexity of the diagnostic and therapeutic process. CLINICAL CASE: 25-year-old woman, gravida 2, para 1 (preeclampsia), at 36 weeks of gestation was referred to the emergency department by her primary care physician due to severe disturbance on the blood tests and general discomfort. Initially, a HELLP syndrome was suspected. However, after going in depth in the case, the final diagnosis was preeclampsia associated to acute myeloid leukemia, simulating blood parameters in HELLP syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: It is essential to study deeply and carry out a complete differential diagnosis process of anaemia and thrombocytopenia during pregnancy. Leukemia requires an early multidisciplinary management both for diagnosis and treatment.
