Abstract
A 32-year-old woman at 26 weeks gestation presented with severe unexplained thrombocytopenia with signs and symptoms of severe pregnancy-induced hypertension and what appeared to be hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count syndrome, leading to a severe diagnostic challenge. The multidisciplinary team identified her condition as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Timely management decisions and multidisciplinary care ensured a safe delivery.
