dc.description.abstractIntroduction: Acute fatty liver of pregnancy remains an elusive and potentially fatal complication of a rare liver disease in late pregnancy. Due to sparse research, diagnostic dilemmas, and multi?organ involvement of the disease, it is imperative to elaborate the evaluation and management principles to confine the outcomes. Case Reports: Here, we aim to discuss in detail the peripartum manifestations and goal?directed management protocols in a case series of four patients managed at a tertiary care setup in India. Conclusion: It was found that all four cases had varied presentations ranging from asymptomatic hypoglycemia to liver failure and multiorgan dysfunction requiring a multidisciplinary perioperative care approach to prevent complications by incorporating supportive care along with latest available point of care diagnostics, interventional care, Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) and Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).en_US
