We treated a 78-year-old female affected by nontraumatic spontaneous rectus sheath hematoma. We decided to perform the embolization with the new liquid agent Squidperi. Complete exclusion of the bleeding vessel was obtained without complications. Its use should be considered for treatment of nontraumatic rectus sheath hematoma.

AbstractRectus sheath hematoma is an uncommon and often clinically misdiagnosed cause of abdominal pain. We report such a case of a 42-year-old woman who developed an abdominal-wall hematoma at 32 weeks of gestation. Initially, she was suspected as having a complicated ovarian tumor associated with pregnancy, because of the intense abdominal pain. Both ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging proved to be useful in diagnosing rectus sheath hematoma. A conservative management was applied for the rectus sheath hematoma and the patient recovered uneventfully. Although it is a very rare entity, rectus sheath hematoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of every pregnant patient who presents with abdominal pain.
