ABSTRACT
Preeclampsia is a multi-system disorder with varied etiology. Serum calcium derangements have been reported in this group. Methods: The present comparative study included 50 cases with preeclampsia and 50 controls. History was taken from each patient and thorough clinical examination was done. Serum calcium levels were estimated and compared. Result: Serum calcium levels were lower in women with preeclampsia and the difference was statistically significant (p=0.000). Conclusion: Hypocalcaemia may have a role in pre-eclampsia.
