AbstractWe report a case of a 29-year-old primigravida asian woman with severe peripartal HELLP-syndrome. During delivery she developed coma. HELLP syndrome, complicated by severe intracerebral hemorrhage was detected. During course of therapy with drainage of intraventricular intracerebral hemorrhage, the patient developed pneumonia followed by severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with critically raised ICP. After 31 days of stabilization by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and lung protective ventilation the patient was weaned of ECMO therapy. Following a period of 107 days including the weaning of respirator-therapy her neurologic status improved and she was able to follow commands, move upper and lower extremities on request, and recognize her relatives.Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.
