Abstract :
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a lifethreatening condition and remains a leading cause of
maternal mortality. Embolization is an effective
therapeutic strategy for PPH with the advantages of
being fast, repeatable, and the possibility of fertility
preservation. A young 30 year old female P2L2
presented to our department with secondary postpartum
haemorrhage initially managed conservatively followed
by coil embolization and finally hysterectomy after the
failure of conservative and embolization procedure.
