Preeclampsia is a multisystem hypertensive disorder of pregnancy that remains a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Case series offer valuable insights into its clinical presentation, management, and outcomes in real-world settings. This study describes maternal and neonatal outcomes among five cases of preeclampsia managed at a tertiary care center.

This descriptive case series was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in (Country) between January 2023 and December 2024. Five pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia after 20 weeks of gestation were included. Diagnosis was based on standard criteria, including hypertension, proteinuria, and/or end-organ dysfunction. Data on maternal demographics, parity, gestational age at diagnosis, disease severity, mode of delivery, and maternal and neonatal outcomes were collected and analyzed.
