Spontaneous rupture of uteroovarian veins in pregnancy: two case reports

M R Foley et al. Am J Obstet Gynecol. 1987 Apr.

Abstract

Two cases of acute spontaneous rupture of uterine ovarian veins during the third trimester of pregnancy are reported. This condition has an obscure etiology and a relatively infrequent incidence and has been associated in the past with very high maternal and fetal mortality. The clinician is faced with both a puzzling diagnostic dilemma and a perplexing management scheme.
