Surgical Management of Massive Rectus Sheath Haematoma due to Inferior Epigastric Artery Rupture
2005
EJVES Extra
We present the case of a 62-year-old lady who was in shock due to continuous bleeding into a rectus sheath haematoma. She was treated by ligation of the inferior and superior epigastric arteries via incisions over the inguinal ligament and the upper rectus abdominis muscle. No attempt was made to evacuate the retroperitoneal component of the haematoma in order to maintain the tamponade.
