title: [Hemoperitoneum due to coitus without vaginal lesions].
abstract: A 27-year-old female patient presented in our clinic 14 hours after onset of acute lower abdominal pain during sexual intercourse. Sonography showed ascites around the uterus and structures suspected to be clotted blood. Diagnostic laparoscopy showed in the abdomen about 400 ml of clotted blood: sources of bleeding were small injuries of the left sacro-uterine ligament. Therapy was not necessary, except careful rinsing since hemostasis was already complete. It is important to consider abdominal injuries in cases of abdominal pain after sexual intercourse, even if vulvar or vaginal injuries are absent.
