ABSTRACT
Partial Hemolysis, elevation of liver enzymes and low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome is a leading cause of maternal mortality. With the exceeding spread of COVID-19, leading to increasing number of COVID-19 infected cases there has been a emergence of an overlap of COVID-19 with HELLP Syndrome. Multiple factors are associated with the thrombocytopenia witnessed in COVID-19 somewhat similar to what is witnessed in preeclampsia and HELLP Syndrome. We Describe a case series of two ante natal cases who presented with a picture of HELLP syndrome and upon investigations turned out to be COVID-19 thus trying to establish an association between the two.
