Uterine artery pseudo-aneurysm: Review of literature

The common causes of secondary primary postpartum hemorrhage are usually retained products of conception and endometritis with vascular anomaly being a rarer cause. Pseudoaneurysm of the uterine artery or its branches usually develops as a complication of myomectomy, dilatation and curettage (D and C), and caesarean section. We present a case series of uterine artery pseudoaneurysms which occurred as complications of caesarean section and D and C, presenting with vaginal bleeding.
