Hemoperitoneum as a result of coital injury to the liver. A case report.
A young woman presented in hypovolemic shock shortly after coitus. Hemoperitoneum occurred from a liver laceration produced by the disruption of an adhesion between the colon and liver during coitus. This is the second case of a coital injury to an extragenital organ.
