Deranged Liver Function in Pregnant Women with and without COVID-19.
Pak J Med Res Jan ;61(2):50-1.

Aside from the pulmonary system, the virus can affect the kidneys, heart, gastrointestinal tract, and the liver. If common pregnancy complications such as pre-eclampsia are associated with COVID19 infection, the virus has been shown to exacerbate the effects of such complications on liver function and the patient's overall prognosis. Therefore, the complications are more worsened.5 The deranged liver function often occurs in pregnancy due to pre-eclampsia (PE). Because COVID-19 and pre-eclampsia have similar clinical symptoms, some of these instances may have been misdiagnosed, such as pro-inflammatory cytokines, and increased serum ferritin and thrombocytopenia.
