[Spontaneous rupture of an endometriotic cyst in pregnancy near term]

The spontaneous rupture of endometriotic ovarian cyst in near term pregnancy is presented. The clinical symptoms of this case suggested the abruption of normally localised placenta. Because of acute abdominal symptoms urgent cesarean section was performed and healthy fetus was delivered. The proper diagnosis was settled after the posterior uterine wall was controlled. The cyst was removed and then the ovary was sewn. Histopathological examination of removed cyst confirmed the diagnosis.
