ABSTRACT
Retroperitoneal hemorrhage caused by intra-abdominal vascular injury during pregnancy or puerperium is rare, but a very fatal complication. Massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage causes the high mortality rate of mother and fetus. But the difficulty of diagnosis and rarity may delay prompt treatment. We experienced a case of massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage, which was caused by a suspected left lumbar artery aneurysm rupture on the fifth day of vaginal delivery. The patient was successfully treated by surgery and arterial embolization. We reported this case with a brief review of literature.
