title: [Intraperitoneal hemorrhage from rupture of uterine varicose vein during pregnancy: case report and review of the literature].
abstract: We report a case of spontaneous rupture of uterine varicose vein revealed by a massive peritoneal hemorrhage in a 34-year-old patient at 27th weeks of gestation. Laparotomy enabled diagnosis and treatment of this complication. The pregnancy was continued without any problem with a normal delivery at term of a healthy child.
