Core Tip Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a rare but severe complication in both mothers and unborn children. In a large ICP cohort, we studied liver stiffness (LS) in detail using transient elastography, which is now widely used for non-invasive screening of liver cirrhosis within minutes. LS is significantly elevated in pregnancies with ICP, most likely owing to toxic bile acid accumulation and hepatocyte apoptosis. Interestingly, no correlation was observed with γ-glutamyl transferase. In association with conventional laboratory markers, LS provides a novel non-invasive tool to rapidly identify women at risk for pregnancy complications.
