Dheeraj Yalla, Alaka N Nadar, Usha Rani G

ABSTRACT

Broad ligament haematoma is a rare complication of a normal vaginal delivery. We report one such case of a woman who developed this complication within 3 hrs of normal vaginal delivery. Diagnosis was confirmed by clinical features and transabdominal ultrasound. Based on patients haemodynamic instability surgical management in the form of obstetric hysterectomy was done.
