Spontaneous uterine artery rupture at delivery.

چکیده
Spontaneous rupture of uterine vessels, though rare, is a life threatening condition occurring during pregnancy or the peripartum period. The maternal and perinatal mortality may be as high as 40 and 30 % respectively [1]. Though more than 100 cases of rupture of uterine vessels have been reported during pregnancy and puerperium, only five cases have been reported during labor [2]. The case under reference developed shock soon after vaginal delivery and was explored due to suspected intraperitoneal hemorrhage. This case is being reported to emphasize the need for careful post-delivery monitoring not only for revealed postpartum hemorrhage, but also for this rarer life-threatening cause of obstetric shock, as active and early operative intervention can save a precious young life.
