Navigating the Complexities: A Rare Case of Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy With Placenta Previa Manifesting With Seizures

Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a prevalent and reversible liver disorder that occurs during pregnancy. It is primarily characterized by itching, especially on the palms and soles, and elevated levels of transaminases and bile acids. Some patients may also exhibit hyperbilirubinemia. This condition generally has a good maternal prognosis. The patient, in this case, presented with severe itching, elevated liver enzymes and bile acids, and an ultrasound indicated placenta previa. Uniquely, she experienced an episode of seizure and high blood pressure following surgery. This case report underscores the need for vigilant monitoring of patients with ICP, not only during pregnancy due to the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes but also for antenatal and postpartum complications.
