Pregnancy may unmask underlying chronic hepatic disorders in susceptible women and, in some cases, the associated abnormalities of liver function or increased serum bile acids (hypercholanaemia) can result in significant fetal and maternal risk. Maternal pruritus, with associated sleep deprivation, may cause considerable distress. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a new diagnosis of PBC in pregnancy treated with a combination of both UDCA and a fibrate. The case demonstrates the importance of accurate and efficient diagnosis alongside effective multidisciplinary team working to initiate appropriate, timely treatment to minimise the risk to fetus and mother. Early assessment, risk stratification and cautious surveillance is paramount in managing evolving or coexisting pathology plus individualised delivery planning, aiming to optimise fetal and maternal outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":51717,"journal":{"name":"Obstetric Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"1753495X241293324"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11670224/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142903990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To date, only 11 cases of CHS in pregnancy have been reported.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>We describe two cases of uncontrolled vomiting in pregnancy due to CHS. Case 1 represents a 30-year-old Caucasian woman presenting in the 5th week of gestation with nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain intermittently of 1 week duration. Physical work-up was normal, and symptoms resolved with supportive treatment within 3 days, only to occur again at the 14th week of gestation, and again at the 30th week of gestation. Link between symptom relief and hot bathing led to suspicion for CHS, confirmed with positive cannabis urine toxicology screening. Nausea, vomiting and pain subsided with cannabis cessation, and baby was born healthy at 38 + 5 weeks gestation. Case 2 describes a 28-year-old Caucasian woman presenting in the 16th week of gestation with nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Physical examination was normal, and symptoms self-resolved. Two weeks later, in the 18th week of gestation, the patient re-presented to the emergency room with sudden re-occurrence of nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Once again, a link between symptom relief and hot bathing was noted on admission. The patient was educated on possible links of chronic cannabis use with CHS symptoms and subsequently relayed extensive (>14 years) cannabis use history. Symptoms resolved with cannabis cessation. Baby was born at 37 weeks gestation, with low birth weight of 2180 g requiring 5 days neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) treatment. Regular follow-up up to 5 months post-partum confirmed no CHS relapse with cannabis cessation.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>CHS in pregnancy is likely under-reported, reflective possibly of limited physician and patient awareness of this condition, as well as patient concealment of cannabis use in pregnancy.
