The case study describes the development and treatment of Anaphylactoid syndrome of pregnancy, also known as amniotic fluid embolism, in a healthy secundigravida during labour. Anaphylactoid syndrome of pregnancy is a life-threatening obstetric complication, which is very difficult to diagnose and which requires fast and intensive therapy. In this case, severe coagulopathy occurred, with life-threatening bleeding to the abdominal cavity. Unfortunately, the bleeding was not possible to resolve by surgery at that time, and it was necessary to give the patient repeated transfusions and the coagulation factor VIIa (NovoSeven).
Keywords: anaphylactoid syndrome of pregnancy, coagulopathy, peripartum haemorrhage, amniotic fluid embolism.
