A 29‐year‐old Gravida 3 Para 1, was referred with a 19‐week pregnancy, because of hepatomegaly. Obstetrical history included a first trimester induced abortion followed by uterine curettage, and a vaginal delivery of a 3800 g neonate. Subtotal thyroidectomy was performed seven years before due to a follicular carcinoma, and the patient, since then, has been submitted to levothyroxine therapy.
