Pathophysiology
ā¢ High bile acids affect myometrial
contractility and causes vasoconstriction of
chorionic veins in placenta
ā¢ leading to preterm deliveries, meconium
staining of liquor, fetal bradycardia,
distress and fetal loss associated with
fasting serum bile acid levels >40 Ī¼mol/L.
ā¢ The fetal complications correlate with
serum bile acid concentrations. The fetal
risk is very low if levels remain below 40
Ī¼mol/L.
22. ā¢ Usually T2 or T3 - but rarely T1
ā¢ Pruritusā¦ - sites, timing, usually no rash
ā¢ Jaundice
