Abstract | The incidence of thrombocytopenia in pregnancy appears to have increased since the advent of automated blood counters. In pregnancy, secondary thrombocytopenias prevail, mostly gestational thrombocytopenia. Primary autoimmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) accounts for 3% of cases of thrombocytopenia in pregnancy. Thrombocytopenia in pregnancy is usually mild to moderate. In its severe form, when the platelet count falls below 50 x 109/1, the risk of bleeding to the mother and the baby is increased. Evaluation and monitoring of the condition and early implementation of specific treatment are of importance. A retrospective study of thrombocytopenia in 142 pregnant women, who delivered at the Clinical department of perinatology of the Medical centre Ljubljana between January 1, 1996 and December 31, 2003, was conducted. The results of the study are presented. | |
