Description
Munazza Shaikh and colleagues told of late postpartum eclampsia in 2026 on day seven after planned caesarean in a 21 year old first time mother with low thyroid. Late postpartum eclampsia, past 48 hours after birth, makes up about 15 percent of eclampsia cases. It often strikes women with no recorded high blood pressure before birth.
The patient had a planned caesarean for a mismatch between baby size and pelvis, with no high readings before or just after birth, yet eclampsia struck a week later. The case adds to scant reports on risk factors and urges high suspicion after birth even with no prior high pressure. Early spotting after discharge can save lives.
