ABSTRACT
Spontaneous separation of symphysis pubis during vaginal delivery is reported to be a rare complication with the incidence ranging from 1521 to 130,000 deliveries. This injury is associated with sharp pain, swelling, tenderness over the symphysis pubis, and difficult in walking. Diagnosis of spontaneous separation of the symphysis is mostly based on clinical findings and confirmed radiographically. Complete recovery might be achieved after conservative treatment and the prognosis is excellent. We have experienced three cases of separation of the symphysisis during vaginal delivery, so we present these cases with a brief review of the literature.
