A rare case of spontaneous vulvar hematoma in pregnancy

Abstract

Vulvar hematoma is a relatively uncommon occurrence. Mostly these result from traumatic injury in non pregnant women or as a complication of childbirth. Spontaneous development of hematomas during pregnancy, without antecedent trauma is indeed rare. We are presenting a case of 32 years old multigravida who presented with sudden onset of pain and swelling in the perineal area since 3 days. After examination a diagnosis of vulvar hematoma was made. Surgical management was done. Post-operative recovery was good. Patient was discharged after 1 weeks and she had a normal vaginal delivery of a healthy baby at term.
