Progress in clinical treatment of severe gestational hypertriglyceridemia

Abstract:

Severe gestational hypertriglyceridemia may lead to serious complications such as acute pancreatitis，premature delivery，miscarriage，and even maternal-fetal death. This review summarizes the treatments of severe gestational hypertriglyceridemia in recent years，and suggests that strict low-fat diet control，appropriate medication，and timely plasma exchange are crucial to prevent acute pancreatitis during pregnancy and improve maternal and infant outcomes.
