Abstract

Background. Spontaneous rupture of uterine vessels is a rare and life-threating event than can rarely occur during spontaneous and low-risk pregnancies. The definitive association between adverse obstetrical events and pelvic endometriosis is still under evaluation. We report a severe case of spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy (SHiP) due to a rupture of the uterine vessels related to decidualized endometriosis.
