Abstract

Anemia in pregnancy is a common condition having a significant effect on the outcome of pregnancy. A thorough understanding of epidemiology along with proper clinical history, clinical examination and focussed investigations will help to diagnose the cause of anemia early during pregnancy. We report a case of 22-year-old primigravida who presented at third trimester with anemia complicating pregnancy with fetal growth restriction due to sickle cell disease. The sickle cell disease was suspected with histopathological examination of placenta.
