Addressing puerperal hematomas postpartum presents considerable challenges for obstetric care providers. While hematomas such as those affecting the vulva, vulvovaginal region, or paravaginal area are frequently encountered, retroperitoneal hematomas are rare and notably pose a greater risk to the life of the patient. The medical literature contains scant case reports on retroperitoneal hematomas, with no consensus on a definitive treatment approach. Pelvic arterial embolization has emerged as both a sensible and increasingly preferred method for treating these hematomas recently, but its application is contingent upon the patient maintaining hemodynamic stability and the availability of a specialized interventional embolization unit. In our case, we are presenting a very rare case of a 31-year-old primigravida female with a history of in vitro fertilization pregnancy. She delivered a normal vaginal delivery at 31 weeks gestation. Unfortunately, she experienced multiple complications intrapartum, including preeclampsia and placental abruption. These complications increased her risk of developing a broad ligament hematoma.展开更多

A pregnant woman in early twenties presented for our center. Routine ultra-sonography revealed a first trimester abdominal pregnancy. Broad ligament pregnancy was diagnosed intraoperation and treated with laparoscopic resection successfully. The patient has a history of right tubal pregnancy 2 years ago and terminated with Laparoscopic Salpingostomy. According to the long term followed-up for the patient, we found that she had recurrent right tubal pregnancy 5 months after the broad ligment ectopic pregnancy. She received the salpingectomy laparoscopically. We presented the case to discuss the clinical management of broad ligament ectopic pregnancy and options of surgical treatments of tubal pregnancy to reduce the risk of recurrent.展开更多

Because of its overall low incidence rate, it poses both clinical and radiological difficulty in differentiating with an ovarian tumour. We report a case of a 31-year-old unmarried nullipara (para 0 + 0) who presented with 12-month history of progressive abdominal swelling, three-month history of pelvic pain and one-month history of prolonged heavy menstrual flow. Examination of the abdomen showed a 36-week-size mass which was multi-lobulated, firm, non tender and slightly mobile extending to the xyphisternum. On abdominal ultrasonography scan, the uterus was deviated to the contra lateral side with a huge, irregular mass measuring 24 × 18 cm posterior to the uterus. She had laparotomy and four fibroid seedlings were removed. The largest was a broad ligament myoma which measured 24 × 17 × 12 cm and weighed 3883 g.展开更多
