  • Summary

    During your call duty, a healthy 40-year-old primigravida with a spontaneous dichorionic pregnancy presents, accompanied by her husband, to the obstetric emergency assessment unit of your hospital center at 33+1 weeks’ gestation with new-onset abdominal pain and vomiting after a two-day history of nausea and general malaise. She has no obstetric complaints, and fetal viabilities are ascertained upon presentation. Her face appears yellow tinged relative to her last clinical visit one week ago. You recall that routine prenatal laboratory investigations, aneuploidy screening, morphology surveys of the male fetuses, and serial sonograms have all been unremarkable.
