Abstract
The first report of a ruptured ovarian artery aneurysm in the third trimester of pregnancy is presented. A 31-year-old woman, para 3, was admitted at 39 weeks of gestation with an acute onset of severe abdominal pain and signs of circulatory collapse. At the operation a 3 x 4 cm ruptured aneurysm of the right ovarian artery was found. The mother survived, with no sequelae. Intensive resuscitation of the infant was carried out in vain. Etiology, symptoms and differential diagnosis are discussed.
