In this episode of our Liver Series, we will discuss a couple of liver diseases that may occur during pregnancy: intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP).
Intrahepatic cholestasis is a liver condition that occurs late in pregnancy. It’s caused by a backup of bile acids in the liver. Acute fatty liver is a rare, but serious liver disease that occurs in the third trimester and is caused by a buildup of fat in the liver.
Join Dr. Niket Sonpal as he goes over signs and symptoms of ICP and AFLP as well as the different treatments to help your patient out. He will also talk about the importance of early diagnosis and treatment for these conditions.
