A large intraligamentous hematoma developed after low forceps delivery. Surgical intervention successfully evacuated clots and ligated the bleeding vessel.

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Surgical Management
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Low forceps delivery is an obstetric procedure that can be associated with maternal complications.
  • Intraligamentous hematomas are rare but potentially serious postpartum hemorrhages.
  • Prompt diagnosis and management are crucial for patient recovery.

Observation:

  • A 31-year-old woman developed a large intraligamentous hematoma following a low forceps delivery.
  • Clinical presentation included characteristic symptoms and signs.
  • Rectal examination and sonography confirmed the diagnosis.

Findings:

  • The intraligamentous hematoma was successfully diagnosed using clinical assessment and ultrasound.
  • Surgical management involved laparotomy for hematoma incision and clot evacuation.

  • The source of bleeding was identified and ligated, controlling the hemorrhage.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering intraligamentous hematoma in postpartum hemorrhage after operative vaginal delivery.
    • Sonography is a valuable tool for diagnosing such hematomas.
    • Effective surgical management can lead to favorable patient outcomes.
