Abstract: Background: Acute fatty liver in pregnancy (AFLP) is an obstetric emergency and carries high morbidity and mortality, including death in the mother and her fetus. It is characterized by maternal liver failure. Maternal mortality has decreased to 4% in recent years due to quicker diagnosis and immediate delivery.
