Abstract
Several acute undesired events can occur during the second stage of labor due to a significant increase in the intra-abdominal pressure associated with the process of expulsion of the fetus. Herniation of loops of the bowel due to sudden separation or tear in the rectus fascia in a woman without the previous abdominal surgery is a very rare occurrence. We report a case of intrapartum herniation of intra-peritoneal viscus through a large epigastric defect that occurred during the second stage of labor.
