Abstract: delivering a talk entitled, 'The diagnostic conundrum: acute fatty liver of pregnancy vs HELLP syndrome'.Painter began by stating that, as an obstetrician, she is aware that she "knows less about the liver than the audience", setting a collaborative tone.She outlined the scenarios in which obstetricians typically seek input from hepatologists, specifically when liver disease is pre-existing or newly suspected, or in cases of liver failure.In contrast, she mentioned that they do not routinely consult hepatologists in cases of preeclampsia or Haemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes, and Low Platelet count (HELLP) syndrome.
