    Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is one of the biggest healthcare crises faced globally. Since its emergence, uncertainty about its progress and treatment options has challenged clinicians around the world. Pregnant women infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection pose a higher challenge due to the concerns of an already altered immune system during pregnancy and the disease's effect on the fetus. Thrombocytopenia is associated frequently with moderate to severe coronavirus disease and is also an established marker of worsening of the disease. However, it is infrequently seen in mild or asymptomatic cases. Neuraxial anesthesia is the preferred choice of anesthesia in COVID-19 positive patients but thrombocytopenia in a parturient with coronavirus disease can cause a dilemma for the obstetric anesthesiologist. Here we describe the management of four pregnant women with asymptomatic COVID-19 disease who had moderate to severe thrombocytopenia. These cases highlight the importance of careful monitoring of the platelet count of pregnant women with COVID-19 infection even if asymptomatic.

    Abstract The present report describes the case of a 31-year-old primigravida, with dichorionic twins at 31 weeks. She presented with history of myalgia, jaundice, and abdominal discomfort. No flu-like symptoms as fever or cough. She was not aware of exposure to COVID-19. Normal blood pressure and O 2 saturation. Laboratory tests showed platelet count of 218,000 mm 3, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 558 IU and serum creatinine 2.3 mg/dl. Doppler ultrasound in one twin was compatible with brain sparing. Partial hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome was the hypothesis, and a cesarean section was performed. On day 2, the white-cell count reached 33,730, with decreased consciousness and mild respiratory distress. Tomography revealed both lungs with ground-glass opacities. Swab for COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was positive. Thrombocytopenia in patients with COVID-19 appears to be multifactorial, similar to what occurs in preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome. We assume that the synergism of these pathophysiological mechanisms could accelerate the compromise of maternal conditions and could be a warning to the obstetric practice.
