Abstract

In this article we would like to highlight uterine pseudoaneurysm as a cause of secondary post-partum haemorrhage following Caesarean section. We would like to stress Doppler ultrasound scan as the initial screening modality for this condition. We also describe angioembolization as the prudent treatment option for this condition rather than resorting to surgery.
