Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is
one of the sudden unexpected causes in pregnancy and maternal deaths. It has
been considered as a potential fatal disease in pregnancy, but the postmortem
findings of AFLP is not well known. Because an unexpected maternal death may
lead to a legal dispute, forensic pathologists should be aware of clinical
presentations and postmortem findings of AFLP. Therefore, we presented our case
and reviewed with literatures.
Key Words: Acute fatty liver of pregnancy;
Maternal death; Forensic pathology; Autopsy
